5th Grade Promotion and Party!

Miles is no longer an Elementary School Student! Onward to Middle School. As you will see and have seen in recent pictures, Miles is maturing and looking so grown up (more and more like Dave!). After the ceremony today we went to the 5th grade party and had a blast! I was on the planning committee and everything turned out great with lots of help from awesome parents.

Of course it goes without saying TIME FLIES! Miles could not be more ready for Middle School but first SUMMER VACATION! Tomorrow is the last day of school and we are stoked!

SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER!

Denim and Diamonds!

At the Tualatin Elementary School Auction this year, one item for purchase were tickets to our friend Mary's yearly party where proceeds go to the school. Each year she does a theme party and the Tualatin Elementary school Mom's enjoy time together. This passed weekend was the Denim and Diamonds party and we had a blast! She always has bartenders at the party and this year Dave was a bartender! She gave him a nick name, a hat and tie and the party was started!

Talent Show 2012

Today was a big day for Katrina. Katrina and her friend Katie (on ukulele) sang Jason Mraz "I'm Yours" at the school talent show in front of the entire school, staff, teachers, peers and parents! When I met Katrina at 4 years old I would have never imagined that shy little girl on stage singing in front of that many people. I suppose we can thank Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber! HAHA! We are so proud of her courage and could not be happier for her and friend! Great Job Girls!
