Thankful For "The Barn"

We were so thankful for our big red barn this morning!! Today my preschoolers had their graudation! They are now ready for kindergarden!!!! We had planned on doing it outside (as it has been done for the past six years) but this morning it was POURING!!! We had 13 kids graduating and they all had at least two parents coming to see them... there was just not enough room in our school... and we ended up with 45 people there!!! It was awesome to see so much family there supporting their kiddos! Since my preschool is RIGHT across the street from my house, my boss asked if we could move the graudation to our barn! It worked out perfect! We had pleanty of chairs and lots of room!
The kids did awesome! They sang six songs and got their awards and deplomas! Their parents totally spoiled Jess, Kristen and I with beautiful and touching gifts!!! Now our kiddos are off to the next step of their lives... some of them we will see this summer for our "summer camp" but most of them we wont see often.... it's so sad to see them go.
This is Nate and I with my (I know I should not say this) favorite kids! I have known these two girls since they were tiny babies! This is Torrie and Aubrie... I am going to miss them the most!! Nate came to see them graduate because they love their "Nateeeeeee" :)
Now we are off to see Sean (Nate's brother) graduate from high school... and tonight my best friend Rachel is coming to visit from Florida with her boyfriend!!! They will be here until Thursday! What an awesome day!!
