Fifth Grade Graduation Parties

Since Katelyn has been with her school class for two years in a row, we thought it would be fun to host a farewell/graduation swim party at our house.  The kids were so excited to come over and hant out.  Even Mrs. Montgomery stopped by for a while to mess with them and throw them in the pool!

These kids have gotten to be really close friends the past two years and are having a hard time leaving each other--some are moving out-of-state, and some will be going to different middle schools.  It has been a great experience for all of them to learn and depend on each other.  And Mrs. Montgomery has proclaimed that "it is her best class ever".  A celebration is definitely earned!

All the kids pitched in $5 so our menu included sub sandwiches with all the fixin's, fruit kabobs, pasta salad, chips, drinks, cookies, and shaved ice.  They snarfed it all up!

It's also a tradition at Triggs Elementary to provide a graduation luncheon during an extended lunch hour.  The PTSO decorated and set up tables with a Hawaiian Luau theme.  There was also a photo booth with props for the kids to take pictures with their friends. 

 Food was ordered from L&L's Hawaiian BBQ

 The kids signed yearbooks and white t-shirts in fun colored pens and markers.
