Cooper improved so much this season.  It will be fun to see how he does with machine pitch next year!

1st Grade Memories

Cooper and I were able to spend part of the day with Reagan on her last day of 1st grade.  It was so fun to see how much she has matured over the past year. 

They were signing yearbooks when we arrived

 most of the kids asked Cooper to sign their yearbooks too

 Reagan and Ms R

 we also ate lunch with Reagan

 Cooper ate his lunch, some of mine, and a little bit of Reagan's too!

 after lunch, there was a cookie cake in celebration of a classmate's birthday

 Ms R's 1st grade class 2011-2012

 finally, it was time for recess!

Reagan had a great 1st grade year.  She has excelled in every subject and has become an avid reader.  We although we'll miss 1st grade and Ms R, I can't wait to watch Reagan grow next year!

Last Day of 1st Grade

Where does the time go?  While we've been ready for summer for a few weeks now, it seems impossible that Reagan has completed the 1st grade and by the end of the day, she will be a 2nd grader.  Here are a few pictures before school this morning.

 I love this boy too!

 summer, summer, summer!!!

Ice Cream Party

Reagan's class held an end of the year ice cream party this afternoon.  We arrived a little early, so Cooper was able to play at recess with Reagan.
