It's That Time Of Year.....End Of School!!!

WOW!! Where did this school year go? I mean it just seemed like we were buying crayons, notebooks, binders, backpacks.....!! But it has been an awesome year. Frick and Frack had their "awards" night last Tuesday. Upon entering the gym, it felt like a sauna!! People fanning themselves with their programs, sweat beading on their brows! Principal gave the opening remarks that included that the AC was broken, in fact, it happened that the part broke late that afternoon. GGRRR!!! In Texas, you need AC!! Well, a mom has to brag on her kiddos right? Frick received "Outstanding Achievement" in HISTORY and SOCCER!! Frack received "Outstanding Achievement" in ENGLISH, MYTHOLOGY and SOCCER!! Oh, and they wouldn't let me bring my camera either.....TEENAGERS!!! Very proud of the TWINKIES!!!

Smack had his "award" day today and received awards in CITIZENSHIP (they must be talking about some other kid cuz when he is home, he is not very CITIZENSHIP like) and STUDENT COUNCIL REP!! Little Smack will be heading into 6th grade next year. And all three passed their TAKS!! Smack scored 100 on MATH and SCIENCE!!! Proud parents to say the least!!!

They have one more week here in TX and then they are off to the unfrozen tundra!!! People just are shocked that they are gone for the entire summer but I remind them that the boys don't get to see their grandparents, aunts and uncles but once or twice a year. This is their time to make some memories. I can't be selfish and hoard them all to myself!!! Plus they still want to "hang" with them. My project list is growing daily with time I'll have to hopefully (not be lazy and watch movies) accomplish that said LIST when they are away. Bear and I will be making our way up to the unfrozen tundra the end of June thru July 4th. I mean come on, I live for decorating for the 4th of July "BOAT" parade!!
