End of School

The boys finished the school year strong! (Sorry some of the pics are out of order)

 Connor wrapped up 4th grade and his last year of elementary school! 😢  Here is a side by side of his first and last day of elementary school!

The first and last day of 2nd grade for Reid

Reid received many awards from Mrs. Felinski, the school principal

And the assistant principal, Mrs. Boyd

They are only rewarded for any clubs in which they are involved and one subject in which they excelled.

The night before I had Connor set out his clothes.  This is what I found!! 😀

Connor and Mrs. Felinski

Some of the boys at their class party (Connor is the one reaching out!)

When it comes to math, Reid is a genius.  He earned the top spot at his school and came in 2nd in the district for a math program.  

The 4th graders get to walk one last time through the halls of elementary school

All other students and family members line the halls to give high 5's for a job well done

He was hugging his 3rd grade teacher, whom he says is his all time favorite teacher!

Again with Mr. Ely

I still can't believe Connor is moving onto middle school.  I will miss having both of the boys at the same campus but and excited of whats in store for them both!

Check Mate

The last week of school, the boys represented their school at the district chess tournament.

 Little brother wants in on the action!

 Strike a pose!

While the big boys were at the tournament, Drew got to do gymnastics at Chick-fil-A

 They did great! Connor had one 1st place and 2-3rd place ribbons, and Reid had one of each--1st, 2nd, 3rd! 

And I just love this video. Each night we tell Drew to sleep through the night, and I overheard Cookie Monster and Elmo having a conversation about that!

Cub Scouts and Soccer

We rounded out May with Cub Scout Crossover and Soccer

Josh is the den leader for Reid's group. He was presenting him with his achievements

 Connor receiving his achievements from his den leader

 The whole pack

 

 Connor's soccer team and coach

  Reid's soccer team.  Look how much taller he is than everyone else!!

Zoo Day

While the big kids were in school, Drew's besties, Maddie and Waylon, along with their mommies and I all spent the day at the Houston Zoo.  It was perfect weather and not crowded at all!

 I thought this was funny. The elephant's name is Baylor and he's tall for his age! 😆

 Watching the elephant get her bath

 We got to feed the giraffes!

 

 

 Brushing the goats at the petting zoo

 On the train

 All three kids fell asleep before we even got onto the highway!
