Movin' On To Middle School

Today was Cooper's Promotion from elementary school not Graduation but Promotion. It's the end of 14 years at that school which seems pretty amazing. The poor neglected 3rd child had a little ceremony with the rest of his 5th grade friends. This first picture is with his three best buddies Avery, Nick & Jack that he has known since before kindergarten even. We call them the 4 musketeers. All but Nick are headed to the same middle school where I work.


This is Cooper the ham with his principal, Mr. Floyd. He has been the principal for only two years of the six that Cooper has been there. In his time there he had 3 different principals.


Cooper was asked with a group of friends to present the 5th grader's "gift" to the school which was new basketballs for the school.


I added this one just for fun because it is Cooper again being a ham which pretty much is every picture ever taken of him. Parents from his school always talk about what a nice, fun kid he is and how much the love being around him. It's awesome to be the mom of such a happy-go-lucky kid. He really IS awesome!


I just threw this one in for fun. This is Tucker on the back of his truck with his good friend Justin. The back of the truck he just wrecked one Wednesday! Yes, it is true another vehicle bites the dust. Well actually it can be repaired luckily but it seems he is not capable of having a car for more than a year without doing damage. I can't really imagine what it would be like to be a new driver in a big city myself. I never got in a wreck as a kid, but I didn't have as much traffic to contend with of course. Hopefully things will go better for him once we get the truck repaired!
