MIKEY'S KINDERGARTEN AWARD CEREMONY!!

i know, i know.

you guys are prolly thinking that this should be the weekend recap post (not that there is too much to report) but i wanted to post this before time got the best of me.

i'm home sick today so i figured i might as well get it done (along with the new banner...whatcha think? that is actually a street in our town...well biloxi anyway. i'm glad i got a shot of it when i did b/c katrina blew it down and they have replaced the street sign with one of those that hang up by the traffic lights and it shares a sign with the street on the other side of the road...grr!)

so anyway, yesterday was mikey's kindergarten award ceremony. it was cute. they sang songs, got certificates, and ate cake.

an exciting part was that mikey won the perfect attendance award. that's right folks. i've learned from the best (my mom)....unless you're dying, you don't stay home from school. i was quite proud when mikey won that award.

and now for your viewing pleasure:


mikey and mrs. upton


his kindergarten certificate


perfect attendance award

one of the best things about the lil ceremony is when they gave us these scrapbooks show casing some of the work they have done the past year. there was also a picture of them on the first day of schoool, a b&w of their school picture, and a handwriting sample from the first day of school and a day this month (what progress!).

this is something i will cherish forever!


"my family likes to play on the computer"--ain't that the truth!


"i'm thankful for my daddy"--how cute is that!!


"i will build a police station"--i bet you could baby!


look at how much he has improved in less then a year. AMAZING!



hard to believe that my baby is not going to be a kindergartener anymore. as of 2:25 p.m. today, he will be a first grader.

bug, i've enjoyed so much watching you grow and become smarter and smarter with each passing day. i hope you enjoy 1st grade as much as you did kindergarten.

i love you!

It's sad to think they won't stay sweet little babies foreverr, but oh so wonderful to watch them learn and grow.

Love the banner!

Maybe, after he's done building the police station, he can come on over and build a gazebo in my back yard? I love a man who can use Fisher Price tools!
