Throw Back Thursday... and Today

Throw back to August of last year- the first day of school....
Jump to today- my kids last day of school!

Same shirt for Lucas, same hair-do for Alex
last day

They both had great years, loved their teachers, ended with great grades, made new friends and we even had a successful spring soccer season for both (even after I swore I would never sign Lucas up for soccer again).

They have mixed feelings about school ending.

It was a good school year and cannot wait to tell you about the surprise we have in store for our kids right after school today.

Oh and Ryder had to have a picture too of course, though still in his pajamas

When is the end of the school year for you?  How do you feel about it?

    1. Wow, I think that is the longest I have heard. And yes, do they really think anyone is going to be there that Monday?

  3. Oh don't your kids look like they hit a growth spurt. Hehe, so cute! I love that you do the first and last day photos! Hopefully someday I'll take this advice and not forget to do this!

    1. Yes, they definitely have been growing a lot- Lucas is going to pass me up way too soon

  4. Cute kids! Can't wait to see them. Our last day is July 3rd…and the next school year starts July 28th. Yep, year round school is awesome…cough. :) The kids have loved school this year though and I'm sure they'll be excited for the new year. I'm kinda glad I won't have the middle of the day carpool pick-up anymore though I think I'll miss Madeline every single day at lunch. And Cooper will too!

    1. Yes that middle of the day pick up really gets old pretty quickly.

  8. Awww the kids are sad! Guess that means you'll need to plan lots of playdates this summer so they won't miss their friends too much!

    1. Yep, I made some little cards with my number for my kids to give their friends so hopefully we get some calls this summer.

  10. It's amazing how they've changed just enough that you can really tell! I have 2 more days left and I'm so excited! I'm always ready for a break even if I do love my job.

  11. How cute! Alex, especially, looks so much older!
    My kids have 5 more days of school left, thanks to snow days! Their last day was supposed to be yesterday. I'm looking forward to a lazier schedule and having them home all summer!
