Kindergarten Graduation

Noah has our cute hamster, Domino, in his pocket.

The kids wish they could take this little critter to school in their pockets or backpacks.

Hiram and Noah had a band concert.

They played very well.

Hiram plays the Saxophone, and Noah plays the Trumpet.

Their concert was long, but we enjoyed hearing the great music.

Grant graduated from Kindergarten.

All the kindergarteners sang 5 really adorable songs.

Way to go, Grant!

Elementary Graduation

Jaden graduated from Elementary school, 5th grade.

He has done well at school.

He has read over 150 books this year, each book being over 150 pages.

He has loved his friends and teachers and learned a lot.

Jaden has many aspirations, and it will be fun to see where his smart brain takes him.

The Amazing James!

James's grade did a program at school.

He sang so well, and played on his recorder with good clarity.

James also had his gymnastics program.

He enjoyed learning new tricks, playing around, and becoming more flexible.

He did front rolls, back rolls into plank, bar exercises, holding "L" on the rings, skin the cat, and awesome trampoline jumps too.

He was one of the best in his class!

Cute Kitties

Well, Joyanne and James each got a kitty.

Joyanne named her cat, Nannerl, after the only female composer she could think of, Mozart's sister.

James named his cat, Midnight.

They are both black and adorable.

Hopefully they will grow up to be great mousers.

I don't really like cats all that much, but I really don't like mice even more, so hopefully these kitties will do their job and rid us of these pesky mice soon!

But they are kinda cute and fun.

Orchestra Banquet

Joyanne has loved orchestra this year.

She enjoys playing the violin, and values the friendships she has made there.

She received quite a few awards for all her excellent playing.

Way to go, Joyanne!

Breakfast of Champions

Hiram has been doing great in school.

He achieved academic excellence, so we were able to participate in breakfast of champions.

Hiram excels at all he puts his mind to.

He is smart, kind, and lives to be a big tease! 😉
