How in the world it is already the last day of school? Wasn't it just Christmas break? Yep! Somehow we hit the fast forward button, though. We zoomed past Spring Break, tried to keep up with spring sports, celebrated lots of birthdays, it was Easter, kids took the STAAR test, had Mother's Day, and then we were here! I was one of the moms in charge of planning the party for the 3rd grade on the last day of school. I asked my favorite 3rd grader what she'd like to do, since I have no idea what games they think are cool. She suggested something active, so I came up with a relay race.
 |
| We bought all sorts of fun summer-themed items, like these huge sunglasses. |
 |
| The kids had to take turns putting on all items, run down to the flag and then come back to tag their teammate. Ha! |
 |
They played another game inside, followed by pizza and ice cream sandwiches.
Then it was peace out, 3rd grade! Mrs. Bhakta was wonderful to our girl this year and we will miss her... |
 |
| but we were all smiles to be finished with another school year! |
 |
| We picked up Jackson and took him to Blake's house for the 6th grade pool party. These kids are all getting really big! Eek! They had a blast, playing volleyball and swimming. |
 |
| We ran back home to get ready for these cute girls to join us for a 3rd Grade Girls Only pool fiesta. |
 |
| One cool gal! |
 |
| This is such an easy group of kids, which I really appreciate. |
 |
| They loved going down the slide over and over, |
 |
| and the smiles didn't fade a bit. |
 |
| They were so agreeable to taking a few pics for me, too! |
 |
| Jumping into summer--yippee!! |
 |
| Most of the moms stayed to hang out, which makes it fun for me, too. |
 |
| Cheers to a fantastic year at school and an awesome summer! |
