Last day of school-3rd grade

Yesterday was the last day of 3rd grade. Check out the last day vs. the 1st day, right below. Graham said 3rd grade went by really fast. He loved his teacher and made some new friends this year. The highlight of 3rd grade for him was the Calico Ball. All 3rd graders in the district learn dances of the world, each class is assigned a different country. They learn about the culture, the food and they learn a dance which they perform at the high school auditorium for all the parents and families. HIs class' country was Spain. 

In July he will play on an all-star baseball team for Beacon 7-8 year olds. They have a tournament the first weekend in July right before we go to Maine for a week. Go Beacon!

Peter Pan in Beacon

Its Come As Your Favorite Book Character Day at Graham's school. I made this Peter Pan costume for him. All the 3rd graders read Peter Pan this year and the high school put on an AMAZING production of the play this spring, including flying actors! Graham was inspired.

Dress up/dress down

Some little girls want to play with makeup. This is what happens when a boy gets himself done up. How do you like the six pack?
