The kids had their last day of school on May 26th. Which I was so grateful for because by this point I was just flat out exhausted from all the end of the school year festivities (it didn't help being 7 1/2 months pregnant).
Here's a pic of them on the first day of school.
And here they are on the last day (just to see how much they've changed). Funny, Matthew's wearing the same shirt. I think Colby's changed the most!
Matthew graduated from elementary school. Which to him was kind of weird since he took a step backward when we moved here, he'd already been to middle school last year and had to go back to elementary school. Poor Matthew. But, onward and upward to junior high. Eeek! Do I really have a 7th grader?!?
Way to go Matthew! It was a difficult year as far as moving and adjustment and change but he survived and his grades were awesome!
He had an excellent teacher, Mr. Monette. He did a lot to help him survive the year. He is a teacher who goes the extra mile and really cares about his students. I'm so glad Matthew had him for a teacher this year.
Rex and Colby had a blast at the end of the year splash party for preschool. They played, played and played some more in the water with all their school buddies and cousins.
What a crazy year! It was just a relief knowing that we had all survived. I'm so proud of the kids for being so strong and doing so well in school in spite of all the changes and upheaval in their lives.

Man I miss you guys. I drive by your old house sometimes and I feel like crying. I loved the post. They have all changed so much and I feel sad that I am missing it. I am very excited for you to have your baby. Hopefully I can come in August, things are kinda tight right now but I will just tell Dan it's for my emtional health, It won't even be a lie. I am glad that Matt had such a good teacher, sounds meant to be. Love you.
