Nate's 5th Grade Celebration...Farewell Lincoln Elementary

Nathan's 5th Grade Celebration.  Between two boys, our family has spent ten memorable years at Lincoln Elementary.

 It was time to say farewell as our youngest son "graduated" from 5th grade.

 They had a nice pancake breakfast for the kids, a speaker, and presentation of certificates and gifts.  Each child got a small "shoe" key chain that said "kindness" to help them to remember that each "footprint" they leave on someone will either be positive or negative.  This was a small reminder to always be kind.

Proud (and sad) moment.

I graduated!

They did a really nice job with the invitations, programs, and certificates.

WE DID IT!  ON TO MIDDLE SCHOOL!

Last time off the elementary bus.  We'll miss you Ms. Sandy!  And so, we start a new chapter in life.  Middle school!
