Emmy's 5th Grade Graduation

Emmy is growing up!! I can't hardly stand it.  She will be in middle school

 this year and recently had her 5th grade graduation.  It was short and

sweet, just the way we like it. 

She had a great year and we will really miss Timber Drive, but she's super

excited about going to middle school and so is her BFF Abby.

 Sydney, Ashlyn, Emmy....Emmy is by far the shortest of all her friends.  We

hope she gets a bottom locker next year because I don't think she'll be able

to reach the hooks in the top:))

 The moms went in together and got the girls a limo to pick them up from school after graduation.  First they went to Pelicans and had a snow cone and then it took them to Kaze to have lunch.

They thought it was so fun, the only drawback is what will they be expecting when prom rolls

around.  Maybe a helicopter ride?

 

 Emmy is so lucky to have such a large group of good girls to hang out with.  I hope they will

continue to stay close, especially through middle school.

 Her best cousin Elise even got to go along for the ride and that is Emmy's

sweet friend Haven sitting beside her.  Such pretty girls.

 Here they are at Pelicans.  Can I just say it was over 100 degrees that day.  It was

so stinking hot. Gotta love NC.

 Even Charlesy and his best friend Hartley, who happens to be Haven's little

brother got to join in on the fun. 

Finally, we arrived at Kaze, a Japanese steak house, and had lunch.  It was fun

especially with the cool tricks the cooks did.  That little boy is Connel.  He has a slight

crush on Emmy and told her a few days before school got out that he considered her his

best friend.  He also said, "you're always nice to me and make me feel good about

myself."  How sweet is that??  That boys got great taste if I do say so myself.
