Last Days of School Celebrations

Of course last day of school week for both kids was made a big deal.  It is a big deal when your 'baby' goes off to kindergarten and your 'big girl' spent 3 days a week at Primrose making friends and learning ton the past school year.  One day when Ashley was in school Trevor went over to his friends Jack and Claire so Mommy could get her hair done.  As usual the three amigos had a blast!
 On the eve of the kids last day of school they had a special meal.  Trevor requested 14 shrimp and boy was he excited to see his wish served up on his plate!  And yes...he ate them all and even requested more if we remember correctly!
 No celebration would be complete without cake!
 So we made what is known as a donut cake (aka bundt cake)!
 Love their little excited faces!!
 Then on Thursday we dropped Ashley off at school.  Doesn't she look so old?  Tear.
 She wanted a picture of where she hung her bag every day.  She always pointed out the purple around her name and the fact that her picture was taken outside.  
 Trevor had his last goodbye with one of Ashley's young toddler teachers.  Ashley was now in older toddlers but Trevor always made it a point to wave or stop and say hi to Mrs. Puig.  They both remembered each other when Trevor was one of the first students to attend the new Primrose when it opened!
 Then it was Trevor's turn to go to his last day of school!
 They had an ice cream celebration...
 ...along with a little goodbye party in the classroom.  While it was a little sad, Trevor is so ready for kindergarten!
 After that it was time for his last Trevor Thursday of the year!  Our big guy picked 'the place where you get your own food' (aka Sweet Tomatoes) and boy do they not know what they are getting when he walks in.  For the few dollars they charge for him he sure gets his money worth.  A whole plate of bacon bits, 2 bowls of soup, some veggies and croutons and two desserts :)  He is a growing boy.  
 Plus he needs energy for jumping!  He chose to go to AZ Airtime after lunch.  He asked that Mommy jump too so she bought a pass only to find out after oh say five seconds of jumping that it is not for her.  Oh well, he still had fun!
 Thursday night involved Trevor's swim team and early lights out.  The next day summer vacation began!  We kicked it off with painting before breakfast!  This is going to be a great summer!  Although quick one.  Kindergarten starts August 10!
