Last Day of School ~2011~

We finally made it through the 2010~2011 school year...my kids thought it would never end! They actually ended up with 3 extra weeks of school, since they started the school year in Oklahoma and ended the year here in Virginia.  They have adjusted so well here and have some great friends already!

I dropped in to watch both kids at their field day activities.  I love watching my kids interact and have such a fun time at school with all their friends.




After some of the festivities they got to have a picnic...I love the way Maddie decided to eat her orange since she couldn't get the rind off...she just decided to eat it like an apple!

I loved watching her do the sack races for the first time. She did great and only fell once!

I tried to be a fly on the wall so I could get some pictures of Taylor...

It sort of worked for awhile, but I finally gave up and visited with some of the parents instead...he kept running away anyway...I guess some things just never change?!

I was only able to snap one shot of Taylor in the sack race, he didn't like it as much as Maddie.

He did however, LOVE the tug of war!

Those boys where all red faced, sweaty messes!  But they had a blast, they even took on the parents and teachers!  (I think the adults let the kids win!)

It was a good ending to a great 1st year in Virginia. The kids will be going to different schools next year,(not sure how I feel about that) K-3rd grade goes to one elementary and 4th-6th grade go to another, we will see how it goes next year?

We are looking forward to this summer spent with good friends, family, sun, sand, and water!!!
