Moving Up Ceremony

Reality check...She's in Second Grade now.  Crazy how it flies by.  We had such a good school year.  Lots of change and transition in First Grade but we handled it and she did awesome! The Moving Up Ceremony is a graduation of sorts.  Its for the 1st - 4th Graders.  Emerson was given the "Being Responsible" Certificate.  Very proud of that!

 

 

 

Looking forward to all the challenges and achievements that Second Grade will bring. 

1st Grade Young Author's Night

What a cute 1st Grade event at Dunham.  The kids write and illustrate their own book and get to preview the book during Young Author's Night.  Emerson's book was entitled "The Life of Duncan" and was about our family and how happy we are to have Duncan in it and how we got him.  Super cute.

 

 Emerson and Ms. Elizabeth

Emerson and her friend Camille.  Camille and her family came to watch Young Author's Night because Julian dedicated his book to Hayes, Camille's brother.

 

Emerson and her buddy Bailee.  Bailee's book was about her and Emerson and was titled, "Girls Just Want to Have Fun".

Em and her Girls

Amanda and the girls came in town a few weekends ago.  Their first trip to the new house and our first house guests here.  Of course Em, Bella and Avery had the usual fun together.  They spent some time in the parks before they had to head back to Jackson. 

 

"What, this is a dance floor...our chairs can't go here?"

A quick trip, but the girls had fun anyway and we knew we would be seeing them in a month at the beach.  At least Em had something to look forward to.

iPad fun

Happy Summer! Lots of Posts to catch up on, hoping to get back to that when I can...

Em was playing on the iPad a few weeks ago, which she does often, and most of it gets deleted.  How fun are these!  I really think you can see how much she looks like Mom in these.
