Henry Graduates!

Ok, soooo…I know this is so silly. I mean, let’s be honest, graduating from kindergarten to first grade…is it really that big of a deal and does it require a cap and a ceremony for crying out loud??? No, it doesn’t. HOWEVER…with that being said, I cannot tell you HOW MUCH FUN we all had yesterday at Henry’s graduation. (They call it a “promotion” for the sake of being PC. ok, whatever.) I wasn’t sure what to expect honestly, but Grandpa, Tommy, Will and myself hauled our lawn chairs out to the courtyard to see what all the commotion was about…and boy, am I sure glad we did!! Henry was the most ADORABLE boy ever and my heart was just bursting with pride and love when I saw him up there. Yes, he is my son and so I’m a little biased, but look at these pictures, people…you will not disagree with me. =) Watch the video at the end for some ridiculous adorableness.  Enjoy!

So...I realize Henry isn't exactly dressed up. BUT in my defense I was told they were going to be getting a gown too, so I didn't think it was necessary...obviously there was no gown... =(
