The Last Week of School

Of course the kids are excited about summer break and ready to be done, but the last week of school (even though teacher appreciation week has already past) I always like to give a few last gifts.

My caramel, chocolate, and graham cracker apples - because a caramel apple would just not do it. I gave these to our teachers, and our secretaries who have done so much for me this year. 



A photo book of highlights from different parts of the year. It's Cody's teacher's first year teaching so we thought this would be a great way for her to remember how great it was. 

We got Jake's teacher a gift card to Barnes and Noble, since he loves to read. 




And we sewed Cody's teacher a quilt
it reads
Dear Mrs. Edwards,
You have been the "Write" teacher
for us. 
Thank you for a great year.
Love, Your Class

At the very end we also hand-stitched all of the kids's names


And we made a sham to hold the folded quilt (or a pillow)
