I can't believe the year is winding down and school is officially over - TOMORROW! Lots of fun stuff has been happening. Here's a recap:
Lacrosse Party:
The kids had a great time looking around the planetarium and we watched a fun 3D movie. We took tons of pictures - and now the girls are even letting the boys join in on the pictures. I don't know if I am ready for that yet. There were so many kids (McKell included) that brought cameras and they took pictures of EVERYTHING, every display, every fish, every spider - it was so funny.
The aquarium was McKell's favorite part of the day. McKell and Sydnee loved watching the penguins eat and jump around in and out of the water.
Braxton will rarely let me take any pictures of him but I snapped this at the end of the Lacrosse dinner as he and Ryan were leaving. This has been Braxton's first year and he has done such a great job.
NOVA Graduation:
McKell graduated from the NOVA program (similar to DARE.) This has been a fun part of 5th grade for her.

All the fourth and fifth graders in our district participate in the Fun Run. McKell doesn't like to run and so we have been calling it the Un -Fun Run:) She is glad, glad, glad it is over!

Every year the PTA sponsors an activity for the fifth grade. Each year it is something different. When Braxton was in 5th grade, I went with his group to the Hogle Zoo. So, I took the day off and went with McKell and the 5th grade to the Clark Planetarium and the Living Planet Aquarium in Salt Lake City. Here are the girls on the bus.

Touching the stingray was a big deal - McKell wanted to touch it but every time she did she would scream.
One last picture riding the frog at the aquarium. It was such a fun day and I am so glad that I went. Lots more activities tomorrow with the annual 5th grade talent show and graduation - McKell is dancing in the talent show and she is also one of the announcers. She is excited!

Woo hoo...summer break for you guys! My boys aren't out of school until 6/8. :)
Wow, if you went to 5th grade honor day it means you are almost finished with having someone at Hillcrest. Kids grow up fast.
