This Last Week

 Thursday was the last day for Renee and Lydia joining us for school--at least for now! I think this was the best season to have extra students. Every morning they went outside and played before starting school and most afternoons they were back outside, after the highly anticipated computer time! This week these four were completely obsessed about digging a hole as deep as possible in the dirt box.

 On Thursday Renee and Lydia only had a half day of school so we headed out to Pemberton Park for a hike.

It was a gorgeous day to be out.

We had lunch at Dairy Queen. There was a table almost big enough for us to eat inside. I did move chairs off of the "closed" table so that we could all sit together.

Anna was so thrilled with her hot fudge sundae that she had to take a picture. Having big kids is pretty fun! Although a cup of soda did spill...just a reminder that the kids aren't completely grown up yet!

It was a bit of an ordeal, but I made them all take a picture together for the sole purpose of documenting this season. In the end, I'll thank Corona for giving us this opportunity to make memories and do life together.

 On the other hand, I'm wishing Renee and Lydia very happy days at school and wonderful rest of the school year with their teachers!
