Final Day as a 3rd grader!

Here is Tamra and one of her friends from her class. Tuesday was the final full day of classes so this also became Tamra's last day of school. There was no need for her to return for the next days which were only half days. They only do that for the high school kids who have to take exams. Taylors last day was today. He only went two days this week but it happened to be the beginning of the week and the last! HA! He just thought he was going to get out of going! Anyway, on this particular day the school gave out awards and then had a little fun outside with what they call their SOL Beach Party. The day was actually scheduled for another time but since they had so much trouble with the computers this year there was no way they could have the SOL party. They had to wait till they actually finished all the testings! HA! Anyway, they rented some fun things for the kids to enjoy in order to reward them for their hard work. SOL's have taken over the whole school system and everyone lives and breathes the tests until they are finally over! It is quite insane if you ask me!
Here's Tamra doing a little pose for me before she gets on the big slide.
