End of School Fun...

The end of the school year wouldn't be the same without all the award ceremonies, parties, and graduations.  I guess having to attend so many of them comes with having so many kids.  We are super proud of all of our kids and their accomplishments!!

Paul received a reading award!
Miles made honor roll again!!
Miles and his cousin, Quinn were in the same class...they are good buds!!
What can I say about this kid?? Morgon is quite the little student!!
He won an award to the most AR points in his class!
We are super proud of Zach...he has some struggles when it comes to reading, but he has improved so much this year.  It was neat because Aunt Val's sister contacted the school and told them she wanted to donate $20 to an improved reader...so each teacher picked one kid to be put into a drawing for the most improved reader in their class.  I was SO excited Zach was drawn...has a little more meaning since it was in Aunt Val's honor!!
Caden got perfect attendance!!

Then we were off to Mallori's preschool graduation!  We sure love Mrs. King...she is such a great teacher!

Then we had Eva's 8th Grade Promotion.  We are one of the very few schools that even have a promotion anymore and I love that they still do it!!
