School's out for Summer!

Last week was the last week of school, and it was kind of crazy. I feel like the communication to parents at this school is not that great. One morning Ali asked me if I was going to come to her presentation. A presentation that I knew NOTHING about of course. Luckily I only had to cancel a day full of laundry (which I was happy to do).
Ali is such a smart girl. She made a diorama of a seahorse habitat, and she did a report as well. When did she grow up!?!
 Kat had a birthday celebration on Friday, and I took Jack with me, and he kind of dominated the spotlight. All the kindergarteners thought he was hilarious, which, of course, made him act like a nut.
After singing Happy Birthday to the summertime birthdays they had some brownies and fruit. Jack was a big fan of this part. Such a pretty girl, but I am not ready for her to be a first grader!
 She is also very popular. Later in the day they had the wedding of Q and U. (This school doesn't have a kindergarten graduation)
It was really cute, they gave each of the kids a puppet with a letter of the alphabet and then Q and U got married.
The kids sang some songs and read a  poem. This is them reading from a script that all the kids followed. It was all real cute.
 We also got to make a short trip up to Boston.  We visited the temple and our friends, the Jones' and Jim. I really need to take out my camera more, because these little guys are just so adorable. I managed to take a picture of them in front of the temple at least.
 It is a rare treat, but we also got to go the movies as a family! We saw How to Train your Dragon which was really great.
Update: Our garden is super crazy awesome. Even our landlord was impressed with its growth. Those huge plants (that is Ali behind the plants to show scale) are snap peas and it is really productive. We get a full bowl of snap peas everyday, and they are seriously delicious.
