We went swimming several times and had fun at the Bellaire Aquatic Center Friday with some friends, thanks to the Bellaire Summer Reading program prizes. The kids all earned free passes for hitting the 50 book/5000 page mark and it was a fun way to celebrate the last official day of summer vacation.

After swimming for a few hours, we went home for quick clean-up before heading over to the elementary school to meet Jake and Hayley's teachers. Jake's 1st grade teacher has only been at the school a couple of years, and is new to us. She is super nice and Jake was first in line to meet her. They had a good conversation about the classroom and swimming (she saw his newly scrapped chin & he told her it was from the bottom of the pool that morning). Hayley's homeroom teacher was also Michael & Trevor's 4th grade math teacher so it was fun for Michael to go with her and talk to all his old teachers on that hallway. They loved seeing him and couldn't believe he was taller than all of them now. Trevor had already deserted us to go say hi to last year's 5th grade teachers and find old friends. After meeting the teachers, everyone cooled down with a Popsicle before going home again.

I snapped this picture as they were walking back to the car. It's hard to see Hayley in front of the boys, but fun to see Luke trailing behind them, bringing up the rear at the school, just like he will be in a couple of years.

Friday night we ended the fun at Princes Hamburgers, cashing in on the free kids meals the kids had earned as another summer reading library prize. Boy we sure love our library! By the end of the day, we were pretty tired. It was a great last day of summer! We will miss you summertime!!
