Last Day of VPK

Mrs. Palmer with the early release kids

Thursday was Little Guy's last day of VPK.  It was a bitter sweet day for Mommy and Daddy, as we realize we now have a Kindergartner on our hands!  He has blossomed beyond belief this school year!  He has gone from this shy little boy to a very opinionated, outgoing kid!  His imagination has taken off to new levels (we frequently find ourselves in a spaceship on the way to some imaginary planet to explore what lies on its surface), he has braved new foods (gator tail anyone?), and he has grown {at least} 3 feet! ;)  Don't believe me?  Take a look at this side by side of the first and last day of school:

First day and last day of school 2011-2012

You can really tell he's sprouted a whole 3 feet can't you?
After school we took Little Guy for a celebratory lunch at his favorite restaurant, Beef's (aka Beef O' Brady's) and he had his usual; mac and cheese with a fruit cup.  Daddy surprised him with a big boy Lego watch and some lego guys because this kid is ALL lego ALL the time!

I can't believe that in a matter of a couple months, my Little Guy will be in school full time- 8 hours a day!  What ever will we do with all the free time?!  Visions of a clean house and lots of completed projects are running through this mama's head, that's for sure!


Have a happy and safe summer, and follow along on our fantastically fun summer full of lots of DIY projects easy enough for the above 5 year old big boy to accomplish!
