Year-End Assemblies

Thursday 5/28, was Kindergarten Graduation!  The theme was Summer Camp.  Each class sat in a circle around their "campfire", then everyone had a chance to walk the "trail" and graduate.  This was such a sweet year for Crosby.  He had a wonderful teacher (and it was fun to be part of her class the year she became a mom), he made new friends and learned so much!  I'm sad to see his kindergarten year come to an end.  He has truly loved it.

That afternoon was also the 2nd Grade Summer Camp Celebration.  The kids wore cute scout sashes with stickers representing various achievements from throughout the year.  Alexee had an amazing year, too.  She made sweet new friends, and she had such a kind and caring teacher--it was a huge blessing to be in her class.  It was also very fun to get to celebrate her getting married and becoming MRS. S in March!  Again, I'm sad to see the year end.    

After school that afternoon we celebrated by meeting up with some friends at Andy's.  Yum! 

Friday morning I went to the 5th grade awards assembly (even though Rhett told me parents weren't supposed to come to this).  :)  There were some other moms there though, and I was happy to see him receive certificates for math team, academic team, gifted university and drama club.  All three of the kids' teachers had big life events this year!  Rhett's sweet teacher was also expecting, and her baby girl arrived just a few days after school ended!  Mrs. H was so welcoming to Rhett, and she also really pushed him.  He also made some great friends in his class...huge blessing in a new school.

Meanwhile on Friday, Kindergarten was having Beach Day!  (It was also Hawaiian Day, which is why Alexee was wearing a Hawaiian dress in the last photo.)  The kinder-kiddos had lots of fun outdoor activities to do that day.

And finally, this is our last day of school photo.  I asked them to look exhausted and tired of school in the first photo...then said, "Ok, it's SUMMER BREAK, look happy!"  :)  We're looking forward to an awesome summer together.
