The Final 2 Weeks

I have been at the kids' school more in the past 2 weeks then I have all year, or so it feels. There have been parties, field trips, more parties and promotions. It's been busy, but fun. Here is a look back at the past and final weeks of school.

Noah's class went on a field trip to the Science Center where they were able to participate in the Challenger Space Program. They all had assignments and had to land their craft on Mars and then return back home. It was fun.

Lily received her kindergarten scrapbook and was very happy about that. She had a wonderful year!

Adam's class had their class party and the neighborhood pool. They also celebrated all the August birthday's. It was a lot of fun. Adam had a great group of kids this year.

Adam's teacher, Ms. Hobbs, retired at the end of the school year. It's sad to see her go. She was Noah's teacher too and the boys both loved their 3rd grade year. The class threw her a surprise retirement party. It was a lot of fun.

Lily's class party was on her birthday. She thought that was great. They had a party group come out and host a water party. The kids did all sorts of games and got really wet. They had a lot of fun though. Since it was her birthday she brought in Popsicles to share with everyone after all that fun in the sun.

Last, but not least, was Noah's promotion. It's been an emotional week for me this week knowing that Noah was all done at Jerabek and the kids weren't going to be together anymore. Dropping them off the last day together was hard. It really was a special year for our family. I'm glad they are growing, but it's sad too. Promotion was fun. We all got to stand up and cheer when Noah walked across the stage. We are so proud of what he has been able to accomplish during his time at Jerabek.
