Send us your back-to-school pics!

We asked our Facebook mama friends to send us some of their back-to-school pictures from yesterday, and they totally hooked us up. Thanks, mamas! (Click HERE if you haven’t “liked” our page on Facebook yet. We’d love to be your FB friend!)

So how did the first day back in class go for your kiddos? We’d love it if you’d share some of the snapshots you snapped as they left for the first day back at school.

If you have a homeschooler, we’d love to see your snapshots, too!  And we KNOW that moms of kindergartners took at least a zillion pictures yesterday (we sure did), so please share a few of those as well. Send up to five of your photos to the email address listed below.

We’ll put as many as we can into future posts here on the homepage (or in our Polaroid frame in the top right corner), and ALL photos will be displayed in our photo gallery located at the bottom of the page. Any photos sent in will be considered for our snapshot contest, which runs through the end of August.

Of course, we know that not every kid in Northwest Arkansas headed to school yesterday. So please send in pics of your babies, toddlers and preschoolers, too! Any snapshot that makes you laugh, cry or say “Awwwww” is the kind of photo we’re looking for.

We love seeing pictures of teenagers, too, but we realize that not all of them like it when Mom sticks a camera in their face. But if you’re lucky enough to get a good shot of your teenager, we’d love it if you’d share it with us.

Remember that the grand prize winner of our snapshot contest will receive a free photo session with Melinda Worthington of MJW Photography plus a huge 16×20 wall print of her favorite shot from that session. Click HERE to read more about the snapshot contest.
