Alex's 8th Grade Graduation - May 16, 2009

Alex's gift table - Can you tell that he likes KU a little bit? We decorated it with family photos and he put his sports uniforms on it along with some ribbons, medals, and his Memory Book.

Alex getting his diploma. He also was the young man who got the Citizenship Award which was really neat. One girl and one guy get it. Congrats to Alex and Harley. Great job being wonderful kids who meet those high expectations.

.

ElleAnna and Daddy - Notice the blue lips and tongue... Of course, it was BEFORE we'd had any family photos taken yet.

.

Alex's class and the faculty.

Holding one of the teacher's adorable little girls during the photos. Dayton was loving on her. So funny as he's usually not like that :-). Watch out little Chloe!
.

This is Dayton showing me his goldfish as we IMPATIENTLY wait for our family photos.

.
Conlee had a soccer game in the morning - his last one of the season. He had his own medal to wear and celebrate!
.
ElleAnna was not real cooperative in this photo, so hopefully, the one the photographer did is more clear. It would be nice if it made me look about twenty pounds thinner too, but I doubt that will happen...

.

Grampa, Grama, and their five grandchildren - This is the only photo I have with Dayton standing up and not running away... Wonder if the real photographer got a pix at all without him laying on the floor :-). We love you, Dayton!
