Holy smokes these kids did it! 180 days of waking up and leaving for school at 6:45, 7:05, and 8:40, respectively. This year was FULL of activities and new friends and trying new things and staying the course even when the days got rough.
This school year was very kind to us overall, but even good years are so, so, so long. I would say that all of us are ready to close this chapter, take a long summer break, and take on the new adventures of another school year- eventually!
The end of this school year marks the end of a chapter for Mom and Dad too- no more babies in elementary school! We have officially ended this 13 year chapter of our lives. Wow!
The sixth grade clapout always brings me to tears. These babies that we dropped off in kindergarten just a few years ago are so grown up all of the sudden. It felt especially bittersweet this year, knowing that I will be back at the school in the fall by myself. I have loved sharing this year with Noah.
"I want to be remembered for the music."
Noah has had a great run at Jordan Creek, but he is nervously anticipating all that Stilwell promises for the fall! He will be amazing there, just as he was in elementary school.
He had an awesome sixth grade celebration at the park afterward!
A few days into summer we unheld our awesome family tradition of burning school papers, coupled with a newer tradition that we have with friends of burning ultra-crisp Christmas trees.
This was officially the biggest flame we have ever got out of the firepit.
It was a gorgeous night!
Why, hello there summer!
