Graduation Time

Well my little bug-a-boo graduated - wow!!!!! The ceremony was awesome, she performed incredibly and I'm just so proud of her, she was in a bunch of the slide show pictures - here are a couple that I was able to capture.







I almost missed her coming down the isle...I thought she was going to be later in the line....




The kids all sang us songs from their spots, as well as on stage.




Stinker was hiding from me!!!




She was finding exactly the right spot to stand.




Singing and dancing!!




Coming back out again - gosh that went fast!!!











She was sooooo wired - I was resorting to threats to get a few pictures.... LOL
























The "After Party"







Papa trying out her new hula-hoop.....





whoops - I don't think that's how it goes.....




Michael was next...we can see how well that went.... (there are no pictures to witness if I could do it....... or not)






We love Flynn




Maximus stole the show.....





We had an awesome night!!! It was frantic up past bed time....but that's ok, I wouldn't trade it for the world!

Pre-Graduation

For Mikayla's graduation, I took off early from work to go get her. We did a home "spa" (meaning she got her finger nails and toe nails painted) before going to her ceremony. Here she is after her shower getting ready for her spa treatment.







"Seriously mom...... pictures.....now?????"


"ohhhh maybe she left....um.... no"




I love this little girl!!!!

We had soooo much fun!! We were able to squeeze in a boat ride and the weather was more than perfect out!!!



Here is Captain Mikayla looking at the wind vang to determine where the wind was coming from. (never too young to teach, right?)



She drove us for quite a ways.



Here's our captain in the making....

Weekend fun!

What a FUN FUN FUN weekend we had. We started out at Michael's company for their open house/tour/play/picnic party! They had an amazing set up for the kids to run and play, the director said they were expecting over 800 people to come play!! WOW!



This is Mikayla's favorite thing right now...she loves to jump.... and jump and jump and jump!! This is the only time she got it all to herself.








Here she's saying hi to Michael :)




slide time....except she didn't slide....she bounced all the way down!!




Hi Dad!!!



Then she did the rock wall, this was her first time and she didn't have the best shoes on to rock climb but she still did it.







Here she's getting ready to go on a tour of the state-of-the art facility.




Hoola hoopin!!!!









We all had a great time.... little miss had the "best time ever" Such a great day!!


The great day continued..... more to follow!!
