Bowler's Alley: Spencer's last day of Kindergarten, June 28th

Spencer's last day of Kindergarten was bitter sweet. He hated saying goodbye to his amazing teacher and class, but he was so excited to be able to move on to 1st grade and having a small summer break was also a plus. This was a huge day....we had his Zoo Program and Graduation the same day and it was also the day we go to our family reunion up in the Uintas.

Spencer's class was having a Zoo program where he had to morph 2 animals together from different classifications and say 3 interesting facts about each. He chose to be a Rhinoshark. This is his costume. I didn't get a picture with his hood up. It looks awesome.

This is Spencer walking to the bus as a Rhinoshark.

This was also the day we head to our fun Matthews Reunion....so this is Aunt Alisa giving the boys a lift while we packed up the cars.

I think Hank is liking the ride.

Linc's turn.

Why not, both hop on.

Look at Linc's pose.....I love it.

Program time!!! So it was so fun...they had all the kids stand in front of their habitat and each of them had a button on them that said, "Push me" so when someone walked up and pushed their button, that's when they had to say the fun facts of their animals. Spencer said he was a robot and when someone pushed his button he would talk until the button was pushed again. he had his parts memorized.....it was really fun. He said, "Rhinos are the 2nd largest land animal after the elephant. Sharks are a fish. Rhinos horns are made out of the same thing that your fingernails and hair are made out of and Sharks don't have any bones, they are made out of cartilage, the same thing as the tip of your nose and your ears. Rhinos only have 3 toes on each foot and Sharks don't sleep...if they stop swimming, they will drown." Everyone loved him.

Some of the other kids in his class doing their reports.

Spencer's hood was so hot so he left it down most of the time.

Now it was graduation time. Mrs. Thayer called up each student one at a time and gave them their awards and certificate and posed for a picture. She was an amazing teacher for Spencer. We were very lucky.

Spencer wanted a picture with her without his costume on.

Spencer wanted to take pictures of his favorite kids in his class. He had a little crush on this little girl, Kalie.

This little girl came later in the year and Spencer went right up to her on her 1st day and said, "Hi, I'm Spencer, what's your name? We can be friends." And put his hand out for her to shake. It was really cute. Her parents said he was so sweet to her and made her first day of class so much better. They were very impressed by him.
