School ended last Thursday and the week leading up to the last day was full of celebrations and parties! This last week was bittersweet -- it was Will's last year of elementary school and his friends are going to all be at different schools next year, so it is both sad and exciting.
Here's a photo of Henry at his wild luau-themed end-of-year party.
Will's end-of-the-year party included a field trip to Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul and then festivities at Southside Place.
5th Grade Graduation Day!
Will had outgrown all his pants, so we grabbed him uniform pants for next year. With a blazer, this is basically his uniform for dress days at school.
The 5th grade class sang two songs for the parents.
And then it was graduation time!
Congratulations, Will! We are so proud of you and all your accomplishments!
The graduation ceremony also included a massive photo collage.
Then and now -- he has grown so much!
Final song: "Wave Your Flag" -- the kids all waved flags that they designed with the logo of their future middle school!
Two proud parents
Each year, fifth graders decorate figures and the teachers put them up in the hallway as a huge bar graph showing the middle school plans. We are excited to be Kinkaid-bound!
On our way out, we said goodbye to the best librarian ever!
I picked up Henry at 3pm and we also had to say one last goodbye to our librarian before heading to the pool to get Will.
And then it was back home for our annual "Welcome to Summer" celebration!
Crave cupcakes + books
Will's cupcake!
So many books! This is Henry's stack,
and this is Will's.
Summer is here, and we could not be more excited!
