Back on Friday, May 27 Carson graduated from Kindergarten at Key. I've been meaning to do this post for weeks, but teaching summer school has gotten in my way!!What a wonderful afternoon we had! I took a half day, so I was able to really enjoy this special moment with my sweet boy! I had a reeeaaalll hard time choosing pictures, so beware of picture overload!
Carson and the most amazing kindergarten teacher of ALL time, Mrs. Binford.
Here is my man before he left for school the day of his graduation.

They walked out to the "real" graduation song, whatever that's called...I teared up!!

We let Carson choose where he wanted to eat his graduation dinner, and of course he chose Spaghetti Warehouse, his all time fave! We figured instead taking him to the one in Arlington we'd take him to the one in The West End. We had a great time!!
walking in The Westend...it was way different from what I remember it being in my childhood, many places have gone out of business!!
Sam got me flowers from a vendor, made me happy! :)
thumbs up! The bear got his wish to sit in the train!
Mommy and Ella Belle
train at Spaghetti Warehouse!
The waiters sang to him!!

We walked to the grassy knoll to see where JFK was shot
Sam almost bought a $7 travel brochure about the grassy knoll from a drunk guy!
looking out at the x that marks the spot where JFK was shot. The only people that really "got " the whole signifigance were Cade, Sam, and I. For the little ones it was just a fun scenic walk.

What a fun night to celebrate our big graduate!
