Last Day of 4th and 2nd Grade

 Everett & his best buddies do a skit in the talent show on the last day of school:

Hands down one of the best!
We love Mrs. Morgan!

Emory's fabulous teacher, Ms. K was voted this year's Teacher of the Year.
Yes, she is that fabulous!

Everett's Birthday Party Sleepover!

 Everett invited four of his closest friends over for a night of fun, junk food and celebration!



  We drew names to create teams.  
 




1 of our game challenges:
Junk in the trunk (game 2);  we laughed so hard.



Game 3 - Architect

Game 6 - Trigger Happy

After 7 VERY exciting challenges,  we awarded "medals" a la Olympic fanfare & ceremony. 

Ev and Brody NARROWLY came out on top capturing GOLD.

 Grayson, Milo & Wolfie just missed capturing gold however they were great sports and gratefully accepted their 2nd place medals. 


3rd place, yet MOST entertaining team of the evening were Emory and Mohammed! 



After the Awards ceremony we turned on the party lights and had an awesome dance party. 


The boys danced to this song a thousand times....  :) 


Just after midnight the boys settled in to sleeping bags and turned on a movie (Disney's Coco). 
The boys shared they had an absolute blast;  I wish we had taken more pictures to capture all the fun we had.  This was so much fun and an awesome group of boys.  I'm already thinking about next year's party.
