Last Day of School

 My babies are finished with Kindergarten.  They had a wonderful year and they are now so excited to be a "grader" - their own term for any kid at their school grades 1-5.  On their last day of school, they had an Author's Day and then a picnic on the front lawn.  The Author's Day was really cute.  They each showed us the books that they have written this year, as well as their memory books - it was really neat to see how they have progressed from the first day to the last.

 

Luke enjoyed drawing on the sidewalk during his picnic.

 

 Ryan enjoyed playing with the bubbles.  He also really wanted a birthday crown and he his teacher was nice enough to give him one on the last day.

 

 Luke and his wonderful first teacher.  She was born to teach Kindergarten and he couldn't have had a better start.

 Ryan and his great teacher.  She is super experienced and was really good at helping him to control his sillies and focus.  He made some really big strides this year.

And of course - here they are on their first day of school - they have grown so much.
