My Kindergarten Graduate!

Kate is finished with kindergarten!  What a fast year.  She has loved being a kindergartener.  

I picked her and a friend up from school for a little
"last day of school" celebration.  

This is them with their wonderful teacher!  We could not have hand picked a sweeter teacher for our girl.  Kate ADORED her! 

I took the girls out for ice cream and let them put whatever they wanted on it.  They put way too much ice cream in their cups and topped it with chocolate, sprinkles, gummy worms, gummy bears, cookie dough... and then they basically just ate the top layer and threw the rest away.  Ha! 

Then, we went to The Magic House for a few hours.  

Mark was working at an event with his boss that night, so after I dropped her friend off, I took Kate out to eat.

She is ready for summer! She said that on Monday, she is going to wake up and run through the house screaming, "I'm free!!"  Haha!  We missed her at a lot of playdates this year, so she's ready to be a part of the fun.   

I'm looking forward to the relaxation of summer.  We have a LOT of fun things planned, but there will be plenty of room for sleeping in, lazy days in Mimi and Papa's pool, running through the sprinkler, afternoons spent with friends, late nights, popsicles on the deck... I LOVE summer!! 

ANNNDDD, no more packing lunches or picking out clothes the night before for awhile.  Yahoo!!!!  Maybe on Monday, I'll run through the house along with Kate screaming, "I'm free!!"
