Last Day of School

Always a bittersweet day!  It's fun to finish up another school year, but I can't believe how fast my kids are growing up!  I am really enjoying the ages my kids are right now...can we just freeze time, please?

Kindergarten ended the week before the rest of the school.  Landon loved Kindergarten and improved from not even being able to read basic sight words at the beginning of the school year to reading at a 2nd grade level by the end (actually a 2.9 reading level, which means a second grader in the 9th month of school).  He is ready for 1st grade...but I'm not so sure I'm ready for him to be gone all day!

The last day of school is, of course, pretty much a party day.  During lunch recess they had music blasting on playground.  Ashlee and friends danced along...

4th/5th Grade Logan District Fun Run

Every year the 4th and 5th graders from all the elementary schools in the Logan School District participate in a one mile Fun Run.  There are three heats each for the boys and the girls. They are placed into heats based on their mile time from their PE teacher. Ashlee was in the fastest heat for the girls.

Spring Soccer 2011

Ashlee, Brynlee, and Landon finished another fun season of Spring soccer in May.  All of them did very well and continued to improve their skills.  It was so fun to watch them...especially without the added pressure of coaching.  I decided to take the year off  :o)
