The graduates









It's hard to believe that Audrey has finished Kindergarten! She officially "graduated" on May 22. They wore caps and gowns and even got diplomas. It was so sweet to watch them do their recitation together for the last time as a class. We feel so blessed to have her at Covenant - a place where God comes first. We couldn't be happier about her first year in school. The day before graduation, Audrey had a field day - the kindergarten classes had friendly competitions with water balloon fights, races, tag, and some crazy game where they had to run to a pile of clothes, put them on and spin around and then take the clothes off and run back to tag the next person. I had never heard of that one, but they had fun doing it! Most importantly, Audrey received the sportsmanship award for the kindergarten classes (for the girls.) Her sweet friend Bronson, our carpool buddy, received the award for the kindergarten boys. Must be all that good advice Sharon and I give during our weekly carpool drives! Ha!! We just have sweet kids. I was very proud of Audrey.


Not to be out done, Tatum had a last-day-of-school party and she also received a diploma. She will now officially be in the "older threes" class next year! She's had a great first year of preschool and she's changed so much in the past year. The other day she told me she was done with "the Tatum talk" and then she kept asking me if I noticed how much her words had changed. She's a nut! I think she just wants to be big like Audrey. She's already claiming to be four and it's hard to convince her otherwise!


Can't forget Hudson - he's just crazy! He is obsessed with Nemo these days - he's always walking around saying "Nemo, Nemo, no!!" and "but" (boat). He can also say "shark bait," but I would have no way of knowing how to spell his version of how he pronounces it! It's cute. He is constantly telling Tatum (Taydoo) "no!" and running away from her or something. He calls himself "honey," which I guess is a way of saying Huddy.


Summer is here - time for lazy days and not having to get up at the crack of dawn. Look for our next post in the next few days -- we went camping with the girls!!
