End of First

Gabe is officially done with first grade. Yesterday was the last day and they had a progressive party. They went to three different houses for picnic lunch, games and snacks. Our house was the game house. That is the nice thing about have neighborhood schools; it makes walking around for something like this possible. 

 Today, Mrs. Gibbons, his teacher had them all come out to her house for one last picnic/party. So even though there was no school today, Gabe considers this his real last day of first grade.

Tonight he is having his first sleepover. His friend Matt is coming over here. I stocked up on some junk food (we hardly ever have in the house, but I realized that a sleepover just needs junk food!), and Matt and Gabe are at the video store picking out movies and Wii games right now. I am also planning to take them mini-golfing. Luckily we have an indoor course. I wanted to just take them to the park, but it's cold and rainy today (even though we were in the 90s early this week.) so I don't think we'll be doing anything outside.
