8th Grade Graduation

John, Gav, Brad

 Saturday was the big day!!  We had to be at the school at 1:30 for refreshments and photos.  At 2:30 we were allowed into the seating area.  At 3:00 PM the music started and the graduates came marching in...

 Papa Carl got him a cool KuKui nut lei and put it on him as he passed by-

 Let's get this show on the road!

 It was a short and sweet ceremony.  With only 100 kids, it didn't take long.

 There he goes....the last walk of 8th Grade!!!

 And it's Done!!!  Congrats to my Straight- A's 8th Grader who is now a HIGH SCHOOLER!!  Wha??????

 So, we got the Bug an IPod touch.  He was so excited to finally have 21st Century technology!

 He can take it to DC next week and use it to take pictures, listen to music and face time his mommy!

 Gav & Anna (his crush...)

 VIRGINIA!!!  Such a good buddy!

 Tall Aaron

 McAndrew!!!

 Mr. Gallagher!  Gav's favorite teacher AND he is moving up to the High School to teach 9th Grade Science.  Fingers crossed he gets him again!

It didn't seem very weird that he was leaving middle school.  Especially since the High School is the next building over.  But it is weird to think that he will be in High School.  He has grown and learned so much these last 3 years.  I hope the next 4 will be just as rewarding.  So proud of my Bug and Love him so much!
