Mother's Day Celebration

Nolan had a mother's day tea celebration at Sacred Heart. It was very sweet and cute. The kids all sang some songs and then we ate fruit kabobs that they made! It was very nice and I loved spending time with Nolan.
All ready for his program!

Telling me to be quiet..ha!

Preschool Graduation

Nolan had his preschool graduation on May 20th. It was very cute. The class sang songs, got certificates, watched a slide show, and then had a picnic at a park. We can't believe that he will be in Kindergarten! Time sure does fly, but we are so excited for him to start school!
