2 ceremonies down, 1 to go...

yesterday was Gabrielle's kindergarten graduation...i expected a little more of a ceremony, but it really was short & sweet...there's so much going on at the school this last week & 1/2 that they couldn't get the stage 4 the ceremony, so they had it in the pod (area where preK & K classes r)

they handed out the graduation certificates

then sang a quick song...since we were so cramped, i didn't get good pics/videos, but it was still a sweet moment...bittersweet actually! again, i'm watching her grow up way too fast! is she seriously gonna b a 1st grader next year?! :0(

then 2day, we went 2 Corinn's preK ceremony...it was a great deal longer...not only did they sing several songs (here's my fav 1)...

hand out certificates...

& show a slide show with pictures of the kiddos throughout the year, but they also had cake & drinks afterward!


i don't know if u remember the drama that happened with Gabby's preK program last year (ugh!)...but i was so glad that Corinn got 2 sing & participate in her's! they again got HUGE goodie bags from Mrs. Hinkle & Mrs. Sawyer (i swear, these r the best ladies EVER!) that included that cute little "yearbook" like Gabby got last year

i went around & passed out end-of-the-year teacher gifts while i was there too...i made a TON of cake truffles - a good many 2 send along 2 my giveaway winner, but also enuff 2 make up little packages 4 all the teachers...& all 2gether, there's 10 of them! & i love them all - it's so awesome 2 have great ppl working with ur kiddos all year long!

i hope 2 get a tutorial posted next week, showing u guys just how amazingly easy it is 2 make these! yeah, a little time consuming (especially when u're making 7 different flavors like i did), but oh so worth it! since i can't send each of u some, i hope 2 encourage u 2 try making some urself ;0)

also, Jaden's 2nd grade ceremony is Monday morning...he'll b receiving that special citizenship award too! can't wait!

stay tuned...
