Pack It In & Fill It Up

BEST teacher EVER!!! This amazing lady turned Parker's attitude about school around. He has not enjoyed school or wanted to go since kindergarten. Poor kid....he is super duper smart but all the chaos, strangely behaved kids, etc drive him to anxiety. BUT ALAS.... he had a great year....thanks to her awesome classroom management and her insanely good teaching skills. I am so grateful to have a happy guy with some good 3rd gade memories.

The end of the year would not be complete without a super fun field day.

Parker & his buddies preparing for the over/under sponge relay.
Girl Scout Bridge Ceremony: From Daisy Scouts to Brownies
and Manners Tea Party

Gretchen's Troop-now new Brownies

6th Grade Spring Band Concert
Dallin is playing the trumpet in front of the drummer in the yellow striped shirt.-for those who don't want to play where's waldo? ;) This is about 1/4 of the kiddos-its a huge 6th grade group.

End of the school year for the kiddos brings a lot of fun filled activities and events. The last few weeks are jam packed with end of the year parties, concerts, programs, field days, and more. Dallin had a great 1st year of middle school and Mom seemed to survive the transition pretty well too! 3rd grade for Parker was a success-he actually enjoyed school for the 1st time since kindergarten. And Gretchen breezed through 1st grade. She loves school: the teachers, the new things she learns and all the friends! We are happy to be on a little bit more of a relaxed schedule. We are still keeping busy with gymnastics training, golf practice, and lots of summer fun. I am sure before we know it school will be starting again....Aug 12th will be here too soon!!!

OK, so you're the really prepared, good mom who actually remembers her camera to her kids events. If I do remember mine, I usually don't remember to charge the batteries. That's why 99.9% of my photos are taken in my house. sad.
