Some end of the year fun.

Mason receiving his award for being "A sincere friend and a very precise, hard worker...known for doing unto others..." For those of you who don't know, Mason was the lone promise circle survivor this year. He was the only one to "never get his clip off" which means he kept his promise to follow the rules and listen to the teacher the first time she asked the kids to do something. Where's that quick obedience at home? Either way, we were really proud.

The Lord's Prayer in sign language...We love this place.


Mason's teacher was the best teacher we could have imagined for him. She was literally created to teach kindergarteners. God bless her. He's official. We are now the parents of a 1st grader. Can someone please tell me how that happens? After graduation Josh, Matthew, Mason and I headed off to the Hill Air Force Base air show. We were invited to watch the dress rehearsal because it was open to public safety personel and their families. Here is a quick run down on the highlights.
Shock and awe.

At this point Mason had seen a lot of jets flying really close and he was feeling a little over it! Yes, he is singing and playing the drums on Uncle Matthew's head.

Love this photo.


Let me emphasize the fact that this is NOT a telephoto lens. A little too close for comfort!

Yep, that's about right.

The show was really great. Totally amazing! But we had been there awhile and Mason and I were just about to fade...

It's a bird, it's a plane...NO, it's a totally exhausted whinny little promise circle survivor! Cheers to a great day.
