School's Out{For Summer}!

School is officially done for 2011-2012.

And what a year it was.

Started 3 days late because of Hurrican Irene.

Then we had the freak snowstorm in late October.  Powerless for 8 days and out of school for 7.

Before we even hit November 15th, we were already having to figure out how to make up 10 snow days.

Yikes.

And then we cruised through the rest of the year.

No more snow days.  Almost unbelievable.

And now, school's out for summer.

Yes, you must sing the Alice Cooper song in your head.  That's what I do every time I say that phrase.

And on this very last day of school, the temperature got to around 99 degrees.

That's hot.

So, the promise of a full summer lays ahead of us.

What a feeling.

Absolutely love it.

At least till the girls start to bicker too much.  Then I will be counting down the days to go back to school.

But for now, we will enjoy the blissful days of summer.
