School's Out for Summer!

Hip hip hooray --
Maddy finished 5th grade last week!
 
She worked really hard, did a great job and had fabulous teachers! 
Every single year, she wishes her teachers would
advance to the next grade with her.
One shoe on, one shoe off -- not quite ready for field day!
On the next to last day of school, they had a field day -- games, fun, food!
Of course, the weather was not too cooperative and it was chilly out. 
 Students were allowed to forgo their uniform polos and wear
an appropriate t-shirt with their uniform shorts!
Shorts are permitted in the spring and fall for a few months,
but Maddy only wears hers on field day --
go figure that one out -- it's beyond me!
But, not having to wear the uniform polo shirt is a big deal at her school!  
So, she wore a Salty Dog Cafe (Hilton Head Island)
 t-shirt with her khaki shorts.
 
And then, voila, it was the last day of school --
for all of two hours! :)
 
Almost jumping for joy!
It was the last day of the uniform jumper! 
Next year -- a skirt!
When you get to 6th grade, you switch to plaid uniform skirts -
won't that be fun!
No more getting her hair caught in the zipper!  Ooops!
 
Let's get summer started!

She looks like she is happy for the end of the year. So glad she has always been blessed with teachers she loves. I can't believe she will be in middle school next year. Tomorrow is the last day with kids and Friday is my last day. WOO HOO!
