Memorial Day and End of School

As usual, things have been very busy at the Bonner household. I've transitioned into working at home full-time, we had Memorial Day, and the end of 2nd Grade and The Sloan School.

Here are a couple of pictures of the 1st annual Memorial Day Mom vs. Storm Softball game. I believe the boys thought playing the moms would be a total piece of cake but we held our own and WON the game. Now, for a lot of us, other than helping the boys practice, we hadn't picked up a bat or a glove in a very long time (I can't even think how long for me). But we all did great, hit good balls, and scored some runs. We even managed to make a few outs. It was a lot of fun for everyone, especially the dads who got a great laugh at our expense. A big shout out for Angela who caught a major fly ball hit by one of those dads and got him OUT!!!!!


After Memorial Day Michael spent his last week at the Sloan School. It's been great but it's time to go and simplify our lives a bit. So the week was filled with fun activities at school. Wednesday was the promotion and awards ceremony. Michael was officially promoted to 3rd Grade. Michael was awarded a pin for making the A-B Honor Roll for the year (although straight A's for the six weeks). Michael also got the only Perfect Attendance award for the year (how'd that happen?). Finally, Michael received a character award from his teacher for being "Most Improved" for the year. Here are a couple of pics from that day.



On Friday they had the End-of-School Picnic including hot dogs and bounce houses. Here's a pic of Michael at the bounce house on his last day at the Sloan School.



Stay tuned for reports of our 1st Summer of Fun!!
