finally, the last day of school

Well, here it is the middle of summer (wink, wink) and we are finally finished with school...I have mixed feelings about it, but I will enjoy doing fun things with the kids in addition to visiting with family and going to the beach....

Of course I couldn't let the day go by without posting before and after pictures of the kids!


This is Lindsey on her first day of first grade. She looks so young...she started with no front teeth...


now she seems so much older to me...and has two huge grown up teeth in front...There was a huge difference in growth and maturity during first grade...more so than any other year so far...




Kyle has grown so much socially and emotionally..what a blessing all of his teachers have been. We are thrilled with the progress he has made and continues to make.

first day...


...last day...he really didn't want to pose for this picture...


so school's out for the summer! Yahoo!
