we went on down to the audubon zoo . . .

water day . . .

the last day of kindergarten for the little miss was such a blast!

the spent the entire morning on the play yard with their bathing suits on playing in water!

miss' first year of real school went by way too fast. her first day of school seems like it was just yesterday!

we seriously couldn't have lucked out anymore with the friends she has made . . . with her teachers . . . with the parent friends we have made . . . with everything really pertaining to her school.

this is the lady responsible for helping the 24 little kindergartens start their adventure in becoming bilingual! maitresse sophie is little miss' native French teacher. she is top notch!

the teacher:student ratio in miss' class was incredible! little miss was so fortunate to have 3 wonderful teachers this year!

little miss loved her teachers . . . and all of her new school friends!

i'm in complete disbelief that little miss is about to start 1st grade . . . and that my little shrimp is about to start kindergarten!

goin' ridin' on the freeway . . .

field day . . .

time to do some serious catching up around here!

summer break with 4 little people hanging around 24/7 doesn't leave much time for blogging . . . but i need to get caught up so i don't forget about all the fun we've had the past few months. and unfortunately 'back to school' is right around the corner and i still have not blogged about the end of school!

so here is the first of many catch up posts . . . be prepared for lots of pics!

the end of school for little miss . . . meant lots of fun! field day was so fun for all the little kindergarten people . . . and equally as fun for me to watch little miss with all of her great new friends she made during her first year at big kid school!
