The kids had a blast the last few weeks of school.

I got to go with the 1st grade to the zoo.

I even got to sit by one of my best friends on the bus ride.


I got the cutest group of Miles’ friends and it has been my favorite field trip I’ve gotten to go on by far. 

I just love these little first graders.  

This stud finished Preschool.  

I don’t know if either of us are ready for him to start kindergarten, but I know he’s going to rock it.  I just don’t want to part with him everyday.

M&M had field day, soak your teacher, dance festival, and the 4th grade did an entire Harry Potter themed week. Good times.  

We had the best teachers ever, again!  

As you know I was terrified about first grade with Miles…terrified.  But Mrs. Allen was the absolute perfect fit for this kid.  When I would talk to her about Miles related things, she’d just look at me like I was crazy, because that was not the Miles she saw in class. :)  She was soft spoken, kind, fun, positive, and patient.  I told her I’d send his 2nd grade teacher to her for tips.  

Macey lucked out again and got Mrs. Tingey.  The year was filled with awesome science experiments and all things Harry Potter.  She really help Macey expand her love of reading and learning.  We are so sad she’s moving and won’t be at our school anymore. 

If next year goes half as well as this year, it will be a good year. :)  And yes, I’m a bit heartbroken over the fact that these 2 will be 2nd and 5th graders next year.  It just doesn’t seem real.

We did our normal last day of school things.  Went to the park with some of our favorite friends and then had our first neighborhood movie night of the summer.  

And Macey’s summer bucket list made my heart happy.  

Go to Pearrygin
Read and watch all the Harry Potters
Go backpacking
Go camping
Go hiking

We’ve done something right and this is a bucket list I can get behind.  

Life doesn’t get much better than summer days with these guys.
