Matthew's preschool "graduation" was Friday, and it was too adorable. The kids walked in to "Pomp and Circumstance," sat down on the steps of the stage, and then regaled the audience with 4 cute songs (my favorite was "Bumblebee" by Laurie Berkner). Then each class (there were 3 of them) went up on the stage in turn and the kids' names were read off as they walked across, were handed a rolled up certificate and walked through a balloon arch, where they had been instructed to stop and wave at everyone. It was too stinkin' cute.
After all the classes were done, they played a slideshow of pictures taken of the kids throughout the year. That was pretty darn cute too. Afterwards, they had refreshments and an opportunity for the kids to get pictures with their teachers or classmates. Would have been nice to do some of those shots outside, but the event itself was held in the basement of the church adjacent to the school building (the school was formerly a Catholic middle school), so going outside for pictures would have been way too chaotic.
Despite the ceremonies on Friday, the kids still have 3 days of school this week, Matt won't really be done until Wednesday. Then it's off to KINDERGARTEN!
Go here for pictures (I don't feel like futzing with Blogger's photo uploader today!)

3 more days, really??? And I thought our schools went late...we were out June 12th. Get a lot of extra snow days or were you always scheduled to end this late?
The graduation sounds super cute.
