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!

It took me a second to think how Cooper had been at the school for 14 years... but I quickly realized you mean 14 years of your kids at that school.
So glad it was not a graduation. There seems to be a lot of those lately.
Middle school. Your youngest is growing up... and we are getting old.
Cooper has always been a cheery one and I'll bet that has been a blessing in your daily life.
Congrats to the Ham!
The first of MANY promotions I'm sure. He is definitely starting to look like a middle schooler. Particularly with the penchant for pictures with goofy faces thing. It DOES seem weird when an era ends - especially when it's the youngest...much more finality.
Seems like some people have a definite car "karma". Hopefully, it will change for the better.
Looking forward to seeing you soon!
Cooper is so cute. I see he is wearing his "new" shorts, Dillon has been loving his "new" cloths too. It is nice that he will be at the same school with you though.
Tucker cracks me up.
Promotion. End of a chapter in life. It's happy and sad. Good luck to Tucker. I can't imagine learning to drive in a city, either.
I can't believe Cooper is headed to MIddle School! Life tends to keep marching on, doesn't it?
I will wish Tucker GOOD LUCK, again ;)
