School's Out for Summer!

Another school year is over. Hard to believe. The years go so fast. I wish they went that fast when I was in school.

This was Sidney's last year at Peabody, she is on to middle school. As is tradition, they wrap up the year with a celebration day. This year the entire 5th grade walked over to Cherry Knolls Park for a day of fun, burgers, and hot dogs. Lots of family was in town for Mark's college graduation so Roxann and Grandma Taylor were able to join in the fun.

The kids got to play lots of games and enjoy the outdoors. It was very much like field day from the beginning of the year. Typically they reserve field day for the end of the year, but the past couple years have been rained out, so this year they basically got an extra one.

One of Sid's classmate's father is a local firefighter. After lunch he brought his crew down with their firetruck. They hooked up the hydrant and let Sidney's teacher, Mr. Alvidrez, climb up and hose down the class.
