End of the School Year Madness

I can't believe this school year is over. What helps to believe it is to see how much Sweet Pea has learned during this year of kindergarten. She loved going to school each day and would many times not turn around to say good bye as she strutted into her classroom ready to get the day going. She is such an extrovert and social butterfly that it would bring her to tears when she had to stay home on sick days. She could do without much of the school work, but she was always looking forward to being with her friends. There were nine girls and six boys in their class, and all the girls and boys were so sweet and got along all year long. Isabella never really had a best friend, like she did the year before, but this year she had many great friends.

The school year ended with a class party at the Boy Scout lodge just a short hike away from the school. The mommies worked together to make this "festival" themed party as fun as possible. The party was over four hours long so we had to have plenty of games, activities, and munchies to get them through it. The kids all get along so well that there were no problems keeping them entertained.

Centerpieces were adorable

Drinks were ready

Prize buckets were eager to get filled

Here come the kiddos!

Games were cute and clever

Faces were painted and repainted.  You'll notice hear that Sweet Pea was Hello Kitty.

Ready to chow down!

We will miss Mrs. Bartnett!

Ready to head home with her goodies.  Now she's sporting a butterfly face.

Lauren and Sweet Pea

The gorgeous graduate

She sung her hear out, recited her lines in the microphone and received her diploma and bible.

What a great year!
