School's Out!!!

School ended on June 13th and it did not take us long to begin celebrating!  Our first stop...  Ray's Ice Cream - a Royal Oak tradition!  The following day we celebrated our good friends' (and neighbors) new adventure to Latvia by attending their farewell party.  It is bittersweet to see such special people leaving our close knit street, however what an adventure they will have working and attending school in Europe!  (I'm already planning a trip!)  With the warmer temperatures lately, the kids have put our backyard into fun use with the sprinklers, hoses, slip-n-slide, and more!  We have had several backyard play dates.  More fun is yet to come for Summer 2013!!!
Cookie Dough and Blue Moon - YUM!
Sloane will miss her fellow girl on the street.
Russell is counting on keeping in touch with his buddy through lots of letters abroad.
Slipping...
and sliding!!!
Bathing beauty.
Backyard fun at its best!
