Last day of school

Allison and Ashley finished school today. We started our morning out with an awards ceremony and 5th grade graduation. Ashley received an award for Faithful Attendance. She loves school and only missed one day of school.

We are so proud of desire to learn and not miss out on anything at school. Way to go Ashley!

After those awards were handed out they moved on to the 5th grade graduation. It is hard to believe that Allison is ready to move onto middle school. Time is moving too fast and she is growing up too fast. Allison received her certificate of advancement from Mrs. Dunn.

Next Allison received the Presidential award for Outstanding Academic Excellence.

Allison worked hard for this award. In first grade her teacher told her that if she worked hard she knew that she would get this award. Allison really wanted to make her proud and maker herself proud by meeting this goal. We are also very proud of her.

I do not how we got so lucky to have three little girls who want to do their best at school and excel. We are very blessed to have these three beautiful smart girls in our family.

After the awards ceremony we went outside for the annual end of the year picnic. I love this tradition and love that we get to share it with great friends.

Ashley had such a great year in first grade. She became a great little reader and learned that she is really good at math. She also made some great friends. She loved Mrs. Conway. Mrs. Conway is such a great teacher. Ashley is sad to say good-bye.

Allison also had a great year. She loved learning about American history. She is our little history buff. She also learned all of her states and capitals. I guess not everyone in class did that. I was a little nervous about her teacher at first but she ended up having a great year. She loved Mrs. Dunn. She is ready for middle school.

Summer has started. The girls sure have earned some time off. I also look forward to spending time with them. Our schedule has been so crazy and I miss spending time with them.
