Last Day of School

I'm so excited, today is the last day of school!  Looking forward to lots of good quality family time.
The kids get out at noon, then I'm going take them swimming at the aquatic center to celebrate.

These are the end of the year teacher gifts I did for the kids teachers this year.

Griffin's teacher.  The bag has cute owl candies, an adorable homemde owl bookmark, owl tissues, and a Barnes & Nobel gift card. 

Trevor & Savannah's teacher.  The cups are filled with skittles & a Kiva Juice gift card.

Finally...

Savannah finally lost one of her top teeth.  This tooth has been hanging on by a thread for days.

And one of these two together.  They are so cute together. Griffin was excited for Savannah too.

Middle school here he comes.....

I seriously can't believe how fast time has gone.  Trevor had his promotion ceremony tonight.  He is offically a 6th grader now.  He picked out his white suite all on his own, he looked great!

A new look

This afternoon I took Savannah to get her hair cut.  We decided to go short.  While waiting she looked thru books of kids hair styles, she picked one (it was exactly what I had in mind).  They took a lot off I think close to 8 inches.  It turned out adorable, Savannah can't stop looking at herself in the mirror.
