Goodbye Elementary

The last one graduated from elementary school (grade seven) today....and will be off to high school, HIGH SCHOOL this fall.....(I shed a few tears as my little man walked into the gym)
 Yay! The kid I wasn't sure would survive kindergarten made  it through elementary school with only one trip to the principal's office, a "you know your son talks a lot" at every single parent/teacher conference, a few trips to the emergency room and no one ever taping his mouth shut (I think ;)). Now that's quite the achievement!
 
Grant and I had the duty pleasure of surviving attending man child's award/grad recognition ceremony. Nope he wasn't up for any special award, nope just a regular kid graduating from grade seven. If they gave an award for an amazing grasp of sarcasm, being able to talk faster than a politician or being "choke on your food" funny then he would have been a shoe-in, but our elementary school is far to swanky for that :)
 
Parent confession: Award ceremonies are boring as H#$% if it's not the fruit of your loins getting the shiny plaque, but superman and I survived with 100 calorie snacks and playing with our new camera (bad parenting) I mean, we were listening intently, happy for the other parents brilliant children, yeah that's it. :)
 
Love this kid! Can't wait to see what lies ahead for him...comedian, politician  who knows. He has a heart of gold so what ever he becomes he, as always will be AMAZING.
Way to go Dallyn, we love you.
