Last Day of School 2011!


The kiddos' last day of school was today, and it was Field Day for them--except that it rained all morning so it was watch-movies-in-the-gym day instead. ;)  They still enjoyed getting to do something fun and different with their friends!

We are so fortunate to have a great little public school with absolutely awesome teachers in every grade and subject!  Our kids all just love school and all their teachers, and are learning and growing so much, thank the Lord!!!
As a little thank you gift to each of their teachers, bus driver, principal, school counselor, I filled pretty jelly jars with M&M's and attached a card with this cute poem I found inside.  
 


When it was time for the bus to come, it was dark and raining!  Nothing like leaving for school in a thunderstorm!  


When they got home from school, it was beautiful outside.  Annah came running home.


She is excited for Summer!  

Sylvia dragged home, almost in tears, so sad for the school year to end.  Her teacher, our principal, and favorite music teacher will not be back at our school next year, so she is extra sad about missing them.

Caeden has also had mixed emotions about school ending.  His teacher told me last week, when they were doing their calendar time in class and counting down the days until the end of the school year and starting first grade, he just broke down crying!  When she asked him what was wrong, he told her he was going to miss her and his friends and thinking about it made him sad!
He was happy when he came home today though.


I had put together little summer gift bags for the kids with things from the Dollar Tree, and they got right to playing bubbles!










We're so thankful for a great school year, and happy to enjoy summertime!


"Honor is no more associated with fools
      than snow with summer or rain with harvest."
- Proverbs 26:1
