Today was Olive's last day of kindergarten.
It was an epic year in her little life.
Reading, writing, arithmetic, social skills, and one of the best teachers on the planet.
It was a near-perfect school year.
This little person was trying to sneak in the pictures.
To honor the coming of summer, we dined outside.
Tomatoes, sausage, basil and cheese... yes, please.
For dessert, we split a piece of cake 3-ways.
The rest of the cake went to work with Dave.
Olive taught her friend Abbey to swing. She is now on a mission to teach Elle the same lesson.
For entertainment, we played with water beads.
They start as small (like steel cut oats) plastic pellets.
After soaking for a few hours, they turn into soft squishy marble-sized balls.
The girls played with them for 2 hours.
I played with them for 30 minutes.
They are really fun to run your fingers through.
With force, you can squeeze them to the point of exploding gel.
(I did this when the girls were not looking.)
Happy Summer!
