End of the school year...

The girls have their last day of school today. It's that goofy one hour attendance day. I don't understand this tradition at all. The school sent home the report cards last week. Riley is taking her yearbook and a swanky do pen for autographs. The buses must cost a small fortune to run for what? An hour? I don't understand...

I have the little girls signed up for a couple of camps and activities.
Alyx is doing her gymnastics classes as usual. She hates the floor - so she is going to be awhile before she gets moved up to the next level. We are debating the purchase of a trampoline for her birthday. The floor mat was a huge success at Christmas. We should probably get a nice beam for her at some point - the 2x4 is a little ghetto - but works! She is also going to Cheer camp this summer. Alyx doesn't like to get 'sweaty' (her word) so she tends to steer clear of team sports...
Riley is playing softball - and it is growing on her. She loves basketball (and is going to that camp - she is really very good) but I told her that she should try lots of different sports and see which ones she really enjoys. I am not a fan of non-climate-controlled sports but we will cope...

We are saving our pennies to send both girls to Girl Scout camp. They offer one that is 5 days and 2 nights. It lets the girls get used to the camp by going days only for a bit - then they spend the night in the cabins for 2 nights. Alyx is pumped - Riley is not. Not sure if that will pan out or not...

Busy summer as usual!
