We had a great end-of-year party. Ms. Watkins has a tradition of having an off-campus party from 930a-130p on the last day of school. The class walked over to Grace's friend Audrey's house. We moms fretted a bit about how we were going to keep 19 kids busy in the back yard for four hours, but two blow up pools, an outdoor play set, a couple coolers of water balloons and hot dogs and watermelon are apparently all you need (plus 19 kids happy to not be sitting in their classroom on the last day of school).
This was after the initial rush to the water balloons. It's amazing how quickly they disappear - maybe 5 minutes? Almost not worth the work to fill them, except for the joy they brought.
I just liked this picture because you can see that soaker ball that Jared just tossed it totally about to hit its mark on Ryan's back.
The addition of the Little Tykes slide was genius for one of the pools.
Acrobatics on the swings.
Lunch on the lawn.
Three great friends. We are so sad that Audrey (on the right) is moving to Houston at the end of the summer.
Once the day wore on the area next to the pool with the slide became a big mud puddle. Ms. Watkins ended up having to hose half the class off before we could walk back to the school.
The Four Musketeers with Ms. Watkins.And now to copy my sister. First day of school and last day of school pictures.
Kindergarten went by so fast!
