Last Day of School Traditions... 2018 Edition

Is there anything more exciting than the last day of school? Each year we mark the occasion with the same three activities, and this year was no different. Check out our favourite last day of school traditions.

We always start our celebration with a trip to get ice cream. We have been taking the same picture (in the same Dairy Queen) for eight years! I can't believe how grown up my boys are getting. Why does time have to go by so fast?

Then, we go home and my boys run through their "finish line". This year, my boys made it through Grade 3, Grade 5, and Grade 7.

And, of course, I like to give them a book to read over the summer. This year, they got some inexpensive pickle ball rackets too!

We're all ready for summer now. It's time to pack away the lunch bags, and pull out the flip flops. Happy Summer everyone!
