Sam Graduated! .. & the Boys Went Camping

We're happy to announce that Samuel Ryan graduated Preschool today!


We had our usual end of the year celebration, including a lot of excitement, screams, hugs, jumping on the bed, and making of graduation certificates. This was Sam's first year to graduate anything, so it was a wonderful first for our family. This marks the end of two years of Preschool. Now he's ready for homeschool Kindergarten.

Alex got in on the action this time as well by making his own graduation certificate for Sam. It says, in case you can't make it out: "SAM graduated preschool". I love it! When writing it, Alex made sure that even though he was doing it for fun (and it was his idea), that it would count as his handwriting assignment for school today. And it did. :-)

Now, Sam will hang out for about 2-3 weeks while Alex finishes 1st grade. Then, we'll have another celebration, and start the next year of homeschooling!

For your treat, here are some pictures from the boys' camping trip last weekend.
I don't know what this is about, but when they came back home, my camera had this picture on it with Sam carrying a stick in his mouth. Boys!

Crossing a bridge they found along a hiking trail.



Looks like they had a great time!
