today link graduated his first year of "school" at the early childhood learning center at our church, wilshire baptist. his wonderful teachers put together a graduation picture of each child, their class, and gave out certificates of graduation. it was pretty adorable, and i can't quit smiling at the above pic. priceless. although i am certain there will be many more cap and gown moments in link's future, it will be hard to top the cuteness factor pictured above, if you ask me. :)
his hunny and papa (my parents) make every effort to make sure they see us at least once a week, since we all live so close. i can't tell you how much i cherish this time with all of us together. it's so fun to see them with link and how much they all adore each other! :)
we have done a lot of work in our yard lately, and last weekend we cleared out a very shady section in the back where link can dig, rake, play with trucks, and just get messy all summer long! i am thankful for a spot where he can stay cool and play. he cracks me up below, such the outdoorsman. he loves that hat, such an old man hat, right?
here's a pic of link and his buddy wade. they had a play date last week and i couldn't help but snap a few photos. they are a pretty cute combo, don't ya think? link has started giving hugs and kisses to all his friends. i love that, even the big, loud, rowdy kid he is, he still has a soft side. :)
a few of my favorite "things"
bring it on summer, we are ready for a couple of great vacations, a lot of backyard cookouts, some good pool time (i'll have to post a video of the swim lesson progress soon!), and fun in the sun!!!
