The Baby is Five











This year, we decided to take it easy on the birthdays. We just had a couple friends and their kids over for swimming and cake.




We also played Dance Dance. Such a fun game. If you haven't played, I highly recommend!

The cake was a choice made by the birthday girl. I was surprised to find out that Ariel lives in the Gulf. If you look close, you can see oil in the waters of the cake. Very impressed that the cake bakers are able to work current events into their cake making.

Frogs



Summer bugs and frogs. Or are they toads?


I've been listening to the kiddos laugh and squeel about the toads for the past hour. Honestly, it's been a long time since I've heard my son's high-pitched innocuous jubilations of delight.


Utter abandoment for all things cool and a too long reigned in release of excitement.








I would have gone out there to take pictures of him so excited but that surely would have ruined the delighted yelps of summer.








Summer. That's what it's for.

3rd Grade Water Party



What could be better than a water party on the last day of school?






















Even Little Bit was allowed to participate.













Ice, Ice Baby....
















Run Girl, Run!

























My kids' school really knows how to do the final day.
