Friday was Owen & Walter's last day of school. We are happily enjoying our first week of summer vacation and the 90+ degree weather! Today we started the day with some slip and slide, followed by park time and a picnic with friends, a jump in the lake, a quick stop at the ice cream shop, some boat making and more slip and sliding. Tomorrow we have some friends coming over for all sorts of fun...I better get to bed!
Before I do, I need to share some photos of Owen's leadership recognition ceremony and the family all school picnic. Owen is officially a first grader and Sunny Hollow recognized this big step for him with a nice ceremony followed by a reception and then an all school picnic. I was lucky to help out on the last day of school, too, making banana 'ice cream' and spending some time on the playground with O's class. After all that was done, there was a family picnic where Owen joined the elementary kids for a friendly water balloon fight...boys against the girls!
We gathered again on Saturday for a celebratory bbq for Owen and the other leaders in his classroom at a friend's house. Even his wonderful teachers for the past three years, Gina and Katie, came to help celebrate them. We are all so excited for him and see his readiness more every day.
