Schools out for Summer!

Doesn't that make you want to start singing that song from Alice Cooper "School's Out". Hee hee, does me! My girls are so stoked that summer is here!!! That means, lazy days at the pool, fun in the sun, picnics, playing in the back yard, BBQ's, sprinklers, ice cream, Popsicles, sleeping in, and enjoying time spent with family! The girls had a wonderful year though at school. They made lots of new friends, and had some wonderful times!

Zoey made all A's for the entire school year! She was so happy and proud of herself for her accomplishment! Her dad and I are so proud of her! We know she worked really hard and always tried her best! Here she is getting her award for making straight A's from the assistant principal!
Here is Zoey with her ribbon for making straight A's for the entire year, and her certificate for making all A's this quarter.
It seemed like just yesterday I was walking Lachlan into school for her first day of kindergarten. Now she is moving up to 1st grade. It is a little bitter sweet, she is growing up so fast! I am proud of her for her accomplishments she has made this year...Learning to read, tie her shoe, learning how to do math and so much more. Here she is with her Kindergarten Diploma!
And since school is officially out for summer, that means we can take trips to ice cream parlors, the zoo, the park, and all over San Antonio. And when you take a trip you do need to bring the essentials with you...like quarters for the gumball machines, chap stick, pen and paper, and of course a snack. And you need a purse or bag to carry all this in...so Nana sent us some oh so cute little crochet purses! The girls love them!!! There were so many to choose from. It was a tough choice for them but they made them. Here they are with there personal favorites!
Here is one so you can see it in it's entirety.Each one even has a little tag! Very cute!!!
And last but not least, here is our lil' Lizzie. She was tuckered out from all the playing outside with the girls and after her bath she needed to lay down and take a nap. The girls and Bubba think she was dreaming about being a ballerina...can you see why? Hee hee!
