Work Hard & Succeed ...

"Work Hard & Succeed!"

Haser Family Theme for the 2011-2012 School Year!

The school year is quickly approaching....

Kayla's first day of college is TOMORROW!

So, even though, Logan and Krystin will not start school until Sept. 7th, 

we started our back to school celebration tonight.  (:

As a family, we discussed what type of theme we wanted for this year, and everyone agreed that

 "Work Hard and Succeed" 

was the theme that best represented their desire for this year!  Sweet! 

Tonight, we celebrated the upcoming school year with a Back To School Dinner Celebration!  

 

I had grand plans of a wonderful Healthy, Tofu, Veggie Stir fry night...

Bun then...

I realized it wouldn't be a party to the teens without Pizza!

We don't normally ever have soda, but tonight, we did.

I mean this was a serious party!

 Everyone had their own, 'special' Goal card with their name on it.

(In shiny writing, of course, because it isn't special if it isn't shiny!)

As a family, we discussed what it means to be successful

and how we can work together as a family to be that much more successful!

Success is not just merely Strait A's on a report card (although, that is excellent),

but it is also having character, integrity, being a good person and family member.

As such, we should WORK Hard

to Succeed in all things.

Of course, we needed a theme song.

"This is Your LIFE.  Are You who You want to be?"

We also discussed some new organizational techniques that we will be employing in the family.

Like the use of this calendar.

It is much easier to have everyone's agenda in one place.

Including dinners, chores, and events.

Then, of course we had to finish the night with Brownie Sundaes.

Todd and I did make sure to take Kayla to the college this afternoon so she could find all of her classes.

She is now ready for tomorrow!

This last week, as  she was getting ready for school, and getting ready for all the new friends she will be making in the upcoming weeks, she MADE a friend to bring with her. (;

Isn't he cute? (look in her arms)

Krystin and Logan have High School registration Monday and Tuesday.

Where did the Summer go?!

Here's to a Great 2011-2012 School Year!
