Aloha Summer!!

School's out for the summer! Yea! The year has flown by and Kindergarten has been great! We have really enjoyed the year, but we are just excited to have Victoria home for a while. She is exited for the break too.


Off the bus with a smile



Aloha!
Christian and Grant and I came to the bus stop wearing leis. It was fun to give them to all the kids and tell them "welcome to summer!"


About half of the kids from the bus stop and some younger siblings in the front row. So fun!

We came home, ate lunch, and looked through lots of papers, a great report card, PALS scores, artwork, and books Victoria made.

To welcome summer reading we gave Victoria a book, Junie B Jones:First Grader book, Aloha-ha-ha. We are excited to start the summer reading programs through the school, Barnes and Noble, and the local library.

Then, to make it really feel like summer, we went to the pool to play. We even went to Friendly's for dinner.



We are so very excited that summer is here! Can you tell?

You have had the busiest blog in the past week! It's so fun to read about all the stuff you've been doing and to check out all your great pics. I love the idea of having the leis for the kids getting off the bus- what a great end-of-school tradition that is! I remember when I was in school my brother and I would race home on the last day of school, go up to our bedrooms and yell out together, "One, two, THREE!" and then we'd fling our backpacks into our closets as hard as we could at the same time. We wouldn't touch them again until the week before school started again.

I'm excited to see what more fun you have in store for your family this summer. By the way- we missed you at softball last night! You should come out- even if just for a little while. :-)
