Summer Vacation is Here!!

Heather's last full day of school was today. Now time to think about packing! Heather will be busy packing boxes in her classroom and finishing up things there. She had a wonderful year teaching first grade. She loved the staff, students, and families at Immanuel. She's looking forward to staying home with Grace, but will miss everyone she came to know this year.

Even Grace loved the monkey Heather received from her class!

How cute!

Daddy dressing Grace to look like a nerd! :)

We enjoyed the nice extended weekend! Heather has just 2 1/2 days of school left...then it's time to pack the classroom.

Here's Grace right before she took her hat off again... :)
