Thursday: Kindergarten Graduation!

Last night was Violet's graduation from Kindergarten!!

I can hardly believe that my little peapod (her nickname since birth) is a graduate!  It blows my mind.

Here are some highlights from the night:

The preparation:

I surprised her with this crazy unicorn balloon in lieu of flowers. 

Mani Pedi for Violet.

All ready to go!

Waiting at home just before showtime!

The Graduation:

Her Kindergarten Diploma!  

Grampy, Violet and Mommy!

Violet received many gifts including these flowers from her Nana, Daddy and Grammy Sandi.  She was also gifted a handmade corsage (from ME!), CASH MONEY from Grampy and Grammy and some sweet new clothes also from Grammy Sandi.

All of Violet's grandparents joined us for the ceremony!  Grampy took us out for dinner AND ice cream after the graduation.  We feel very lucky and happy to have all these wonderful people in our lives to share these good times with us.  Thank you to all.
