Field Day and Last Day of School for Evie

Evie's last day of school was very FULL.  She and I went out to breakfast at the nearby Perkins, then I went to school with her and helped/took photos all day for Field Day

It was pretty much a free-play in various areas around the school; nothing super complicated about it, just kids having fun!

They took a walk and signed yearbooks or autograph pages.  I seriously laughed when I saw that a yearbook was an option for a kindergartener!  I didn't have one until 7th grade and saw no need to splurge on one for Evie.  We have our own pictures of friends, with names and phone numbers for her instead.


Mrs. R was Evie's main teacher this year, with Mrs. W and several others as aids.  Evie is very social and loved getting pictures with all her friends.

In the library, she showed off skills on the computer, reading, and puzzles.  She's great at all those and enjoyed displaying that for me.



I have had such a fun time watching Evie grow and learn this year and cannot believe I've got a 1st grader on my hands!  It's crazy to think that the first day of school looked like this:

And the last day of school looked like this.  Way to go, Evie!

1ST GRADE! I can't believe it either! :) And our yearbooks were $70. No, there is no type-o. Needless to say, we didn't get one either. :)
