New backpacks and lunchboxes - check!

I have a confession. 
I ordered these from Pottery Barn Kids last April, before the school year had even ended.  In  my defense, they were on sale and had free shipping.  You can't beat that!  Plus, Chad was at work, so once the order was placed, I emailed him to let him know about my purchase.  (If he is at work, he cannot yell at me).

This is the one thing I splurge on for the school year.  The kids picked out the backpack they wanted - both girls wanted butterflies - and it was done!  I love PBK backpacks because they have a small pocket that I can put their daily snack in and the lunchboxes hold the bento-type containers I use for their lunches.  See, it does make sense to buy these each year, Chad!

I found a bin that holds all 3 lunchboxes perfectly!  And there is room in the pantry for the bin as well.  If you look closely, you can see Gramma Ramma's mixer :)  I should bake more...

Poor Ella has not been feeling well all week.  I guess hiding under the bin makes her feel better :)

Have a great weekend!
