Summer break is here! I'm not sure who is more excited, the kids or me!
We had a nice end to the school year with lots of fun events/parties. Katey got to attend the 5th grade dance, then there was field day (for both kids), the 5th grade graduation and classroom parties.
The dance was a lot of fun to chaperone. It was great to see the kids run around with an air of, "we own this place"!! As was expected, Katey had a very fun time but didn't really interact with her classmates much. She really does march to her own beat and seems to truly enjoy life and not really care too much what other people think.

Graduation was a nice event yesterday. The kids were so proud to walk across the stage to get their certificates. Katey said she was a little nervous because her class went first and, since they did things alphabetically, she was the very first student to be called up. She did beautifully and is now officially a 6th grader!!
Finally, there were classroom parties. It is always a little bittersweet to see the end of the school year arrive. Katey and Seth both had fantastic teachers and it is hard to say goodbye to them (for me, too!). Katey's class made 5th grade memory books and signed each others' yearbooks. Seth's class had an ice cream sundae party and signed beach balls. I believe today was taken up with cleaning out desks and watching movies. What fun!
