On Wednesday we headed to Everly's school for her Kindergarten Graduation. She has done really well this year and we are so proud of her. Justin and my sister met me at the graduation. The kids filed in (4 or 5 Kindergarten classes) and song some songs before receiving their certificates. She had been practicing the songs and it was really cute. Afterward we followed her to her class and she took a picture with her teacher and a friend before heading home to open her American Girl present. They had/still have a big sale going on so I got her some fun accessories. My sister also came over for some after lunch pool time. It was a good morning. It also worked out that my Dad was in town for work so that afternoon we met him for dinner. He had a little present for Everly and even picked up a Moana beach ball for Aspen. It was good to see him because today is actually his 60th birthday so we were able to give him his birthday present. He said he is going to be able to go back to NY to see his family this weekend so that should be good. It was good to see him and wish him a Happy Birthday! Here is a little video of the graduation and some pictures.
Look at where her head hits on the screen door. She definitely grew!
proud of our graduate!

If someone is going to find a Hello Kitty Kindergarten graduation card, it's going to be my Dad.
Last Friday we celebrated my youngest sister Katy as she graduated from college in 3 1/2 years with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Grand Canyon University. She also played on the women's soccer team for 4 seasons as I have posted about many times before so she was very busy. Everly was at school and Justin was working so my sisters picked up me and Aspen to head out to the graduation. It was a risk, since it was right during Aspen's nap time but she did pretty good, especially considering the graduation was kind of long. The speaker was wacky. He was the drummer for Pink and he basically talked about himself for an hour. Super weird. Once they finally started calling people's names though, it went by pretty fast. We met up with my sister outside and took some pictures after and then headed back home to get ready to house a little open house for her. We only did appetizers and drinks and still had way too much food, but better than not enough. My sister's boyfriend graduated from ASU two days earlier so the cake was split for him, too. Now I am not the only ASU Alumni! My sister's boyfriend is already a teacher, but my sister is going to be going to P.A. school sometime next year I think so it is basically just a little break before going back to school! We are proud of both Katy and Alex!
