SCHOOL'S OUT (I'm a little behind)

Preston finished school about a week before Peighton did.

 

 

He had an awesome last day!

 

He had an amazing teacher this year!

 

When he grows up he wants to be a policeman.

 

They had a very fun little graduation ceremony and then a hot dog lunch afterwards!

 

Peighton's last week of school was such fun!
The whole school did a color run!
I wish I could have been there for that.

 

The last day is always a potluck lunch and lots of fun.

She had a GREAT year in 2nd grade.

 

Even CY got in on the "last day" pics!

Preston FINALLY got his first day of school!

Preston was supposed to start school last Monday....but then they let school out early due to the heat.

So, I had one sad little boy when his first day of school was cancelled!

 

We had our pictures all done and everything!

 

 

 

He was very excited he FINALLY got to wear his new shoes!

 

Peighton was very excited for his first day.

She has been telling him all about school for weeks now.

 

He is just so darn cute.

 

 

 

 

 

After the first day was a bust we tried again the next day!

 

 

 

When he gets there each day he has to find his bucket and do the activity inside it while everyone arrives.

He's always excited on the drive to school to find out what his bucket will hold!

 

The first day was one of our favorites: Play-doh and knives!

 

He is LOVING school and playing with is new buddies each day.

 



Snacks + Learning = Everybody is happy!

Preston is ALWAYS requesting a "NACK" (aka snack) very loudly. 

I think if I provided a 24 hour buffet he would be quite happy!

Peighton needs things to think about....like letters and numbers and math to keep her from causing trouble.

When snacks and learning combine we are one happy crew!

I came across this activity on pinterest and knew we had to do it!

It's much too hard for Preston but he insists on doing anything Peighton does, so maybe he'll learn a number or two while we do it!

I printed them out and we busted out the goldfish!

Such a simple and easy thing to do with the short ones!

 

Peighton worked on the addition sheet while Preston and I counted out fish on the simple one here:

We also have a box of the Cheez-It letter crackers that I'm thinking could be fun with something similar!

I'll have to see what I come up with!
