Back to school interviews are one of my favorite things we do each year and, believe it or not, the girls get so excited about answering all of my questions. I know you all might not care much about these silly little things, but I love picking their brains and being able to see how their answers compare each year.

* These answers didn’t change from last year’s interview
I will be interviewing the girls on their first day of school each year for as long as they will let me. I can’t wait to see what a difference a year (or two) makes in their answers! You can see Ella’s previous interviews here (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015) and Sophie’s previous interviews here (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015).
