I was reading that with the Toy Story Airline Barbie voice in my head the whole time. Very clever, you.

And hello? Beautiful children!

LOVE the Back-to-School pictures! Love the subjects. I love the summer airlines thing. Harkens back to the SNL skit with Helen Hunt, right?
"You're having a heart attack? Buh-bye now." "You've lost your youngest child on the airplane? Buh-bye."

I'm not sure which is a more beautiful sight...the gorgeous children, the green trees, or the big yellow bus! Enjoy.
