Ella's school year is almost over, just one more week. Today all the 1st graders went on their third field trip of the year (the others were to the fire station around the corner from the school, and to the Getty Museum). First of all, Jim took Ella to school, which in itself was a treat for her. Then, the kids with some of the parents, took a school bus down to the Santa Monica Pier. They were given an entertaining and educational presentation out on the boardwalk, and toured the Santa Monica Pier Aquarium. They had a picnic on the beach and hunted for shell fragments.
Upon returning to school at 2;30pm, Ella was allowed to have a slice of pizza from the Friday Pizza Sales, and THEN.... the tooth that she'd been wiggling and wobbling for over a year... FINALLY came out!
Later, Jim took Ella to the mall and bought her three new swimsuits, a cover-up, and a pair of jelly light-up flip-flops. Now she's all ready for the swimming lessons she'll be getting every day at summer day-camp.
As if the day was not yet fun enough, she got an ice cream cone from Baskin-Robbins (vanilla, of course).

That is a cool aquarium! Looks like the new tooth is already in?! That's funny.
And er... 3 swimsuits???! Wow! She's gonna be the best dressed 6-year old at the pool this summer. Sounds like a best day ever for anyone really - cool animals, fun food, free shopping spree, yummy ice-cream...
What a fun summer and the holiday hadn't even begun! Wow!
Lucky girl!
As Julie said, looks indeed like the tooth is already there, but she has been wiggling it for a year!
Thanks for the update.
Lots of love from Oma
