Our Final Day Together

Last Lost Tooth of the Year. (J lost it at our party last night!)
We stood in the hall for the traditional send off to the graduating fifth graders. (Our turn is coming sooner than you know.)
We had a very low key day where Mrs. O let us do our work where ever we wanted to.
And here is what I will miss the most: looking at these sweet faces all day.

Thank you for an incredible two years with your children. I am going to leave this blog up so you can come back often and see your first/second grade years. (I did have to remove some of the pictures from first grade because we ran out of storage space on the blog!)

Please let me know how your children are over the years. I cannot wait to see the great plans God has for each one of them in the future.

If you want to keep up with me, I keep another blog here: joyjoyinthejourney.blogspot.com .

“Your days are short here; this is the last of your springs. And now in the serenity and quiet of this lovely place, touch the depths of truth, feel the hem of Heaven. You will go away with old, good friends. And don't forget when you leave why you came." (A. Stevenson)

One Was Fun!

With one day to go, we decided to celebrate two wonderful years as a class.

We did our class cheer one more time as the parents set up our party. Everyone was very excited.
Well...almost everyone!
We made sand sculpture picture frames for the photo Mrs. R took of us earlier this week. (What a special way to preserve a memory!)
As always, we had lots of parents in to help us have a great time.
After sweeping up enough sand to create a desert, we were ready for snacks.
Root beer floats! They were the perfect treat.
Most of us ate very enthusiastically.
Mrs. O was given some great bumblebee memorabilia. :)
That night, we continued our party under trees at Central Market where a good time was had by all.

Here is the finished masterpiece for Mrs. O's new office. I LOVE IT! What a great way to remember my 2009-2010/2010-2011 Bumblebees.
