Schools Out!

Jonah and Katie John celebrate the last day of school! It's been a fun and eventful year, we'll be full of good memories. Katie John is holding the yearbook that I engineered 2 class pages of. Goodbye 1st and 3rd grade!!

Graduation Day!

My sister Julie has just graduated 6th grade at C.W. Dillard Elementary! It just so happens that she is the LAST of my 9 brothers and sisters to graduate from this elementary school.
Four of the sisters (Sherry, Julie, Christina, Emily) are here posing in front of the same school sign that has been up since before our family arrived in Wilton in 1986.

Julie gave one of three commencement speeches picked from a school wide competition. Following the slide show presentation chronicling the graduates journey, there was a very fun and yummy cake that had every single one of the graduates names on it. After all the photos and hugs the kids and I went to my mom's for some visiting. All in all, despite trying to juggle, corral and shush 3 little kids, pay attention, take pictures and shoot a video during the graduation we had a really memorable day. I'm glad we made the effort to go!

House of Art

Sariah and Katie John spent some time making 'art' on the back our our house. Look how happy they are to show off their efforts!
