School's Out!

Another school year comes to a close.  How is it possible that these kids are finished with 5th and 3rd grade?!  Jared has a year of Middle School under his belt, and Owen is preparing to enter his last year of elementary school.  

Both boys had great years.  Owen ADORED his teacher, Mrs. K, and is sad to leave her class.  He loved Math Pentathlon this year, and advanced his reading level a full grade!  He loved science and social studies, and gave a great performance as John Glenn in the second grade wax museum.  It was a great year of second grade!  

Last Day of Second Grade

 Jared entered 5th grade and middle school with some nervousness this year, but that quickly vanished.  I credit his amazing team of teachers this year.  He loved every minute of his first year of middle school...well, maybe every minute EXCEPT the reproductive health unit!  :)  His highlights include Fifth Grade Camp and BAAM Jam.  Jared's report card came home with perfect A's and 1's for the year...congratulations!

Last Day of Fifth Grade

To celebrate the last day of school, we took the kids to McDonald's for lunch.  A well-deserved treat!

Waiting for Mommies to stop yakking and leave school!

Field Day!

It's a little sad to think that this year is our second-to-last Country Field Day...but it is.  Owen was uber excited in his classroom t-shirt and swim trunks.  He declared this year's Field Day "the best ever".
