Officially Summer

We are there. Summer. Wow. Yea! I am so excited.

Soren's 4th grade awards ceremony was on Wednesday and she pretty much took the cake. She came home with a folder full of certificates and a neck full of medals. The lowest grade on her report card for the entire year was a 95 and that was in handwriting (her teacher will not give a grade higher than that) I guess you can't ask for much more as a parent. She had perfect citizenship and was once again chosen by her teachers as an outstanding student (they choose one girl and one boy from each class). She was called out by the PE teacher as well for her attitude and achievements (she was the top runner in the 4th grade, both by miles and speed).

Now she is off on a much deserved, well earned vacation. On Friday Pops and Nana took off with Soren, Wyatt and Ashton and headed east to Florida. They enjoyed a day on the beach and will start their Disney adventure Monday morning.

Meanwhile we have Parker while Mat and Kara enjoy a cruise; will enjoy some time with Avery and Alissa tomorrow; host Callie and Lyla Tuesday and Wednesday, and who knows what else. We started our time with Parker by taking a trip to the mall for some ice skating. Reese will skate all day if you let her; Parker enjoyed the playground more than the ice. Tomorrow we will probably break out the water slide! Good times. Yea for summer!
