A+ and beyond

This week is final exam week

A week that is typically full of studying, studying and even more studying.

But Fifi brought home an unbelievable accolade.....she's been formally excused from taking her final exam!!

My first reaction......."What??!!"

Fifi is absolutely ecstatic over this honor......and I'm over the moon for my wonder child.

CONGRATULATION!

You have been excused from the final exam

You have worked hard all semester

and you deserve a break! 

Keep up the hard work!

Have a good 

SUMMER

ROARING good time.....

Tonight we were invited to a private reception dinner.....at the ZOO.

We came prepared with our picnic blanket, sunblock........and appetite!

It was an evening of cool temperature -- no mosquitos--and on stage entertainment.
 The reception was hosted by the Indian Education Department of APS (Albuquerque Public Schools) in honor of the Native American Scholars in the district.

That was us..... we were included along with other natives students in the area for ACADEMIC AND SCHOLASTIC ACHIEVEMENTS during the 2011 / 2012 school year.

My children have been recognized yearly so we have always looked forward to this reception dinner.

-------------------

We enjoyed hearing the squeals of the chimpanzees and the roar of the lions from beyond the big wall near the amphitheater area.... where we enjoyed our dinner.

Besides the animals at the zoo..... there were face painters, painting the children's little faces....we had a great time!!

Grrrrr....

 Tigger or Sweetheart???

Congraduations.....

GRADUATION DAY....

It's was an early release day today for Bam.

The graduation ceremony for the seniors attending his school is being held.

 I can't believe that in three short years my little baby.... my son.... my Bammy will be graduating.

Amazing.....

It makes me smile.... 

There is so much to do until then.....there is so much we'll go through.

There is so much anticipation on my part just thinking about it...

Graduation is such a special and honorable time...... such a wonderful MILESTONE.

I look forward to it....... Bam looks forward to it too.

To him it seems so far away.....

To me it seems like next year.....

Congratulations Graduates..... or as we like to say
"Congraduations"

spring is in the air.......

--Parent meeting for spring sports participation this evening--

I like these informational meetings. 

They gave us all the information and rules. 

They encouraging my child to be athletically and academically responsible. 

They encourage team sportsmanship and school spirit.

The coaches and principle praise, energize, and strengthen the decisions of the participant.

They'll support the athlete along the way with this new quest.

We look forward to another season of sports participation..........
