See You Later Gator - 8th Grade Graduate

After 3 years, Sadie is finally leaving middle school & heading to high school and she has been celebrating all month! We kicked off May with a Hello High School party for their NCL class:



They have had the same leaders for the past 2 years & they did a great job throwing a party to celebrate their transition by surprising them with high school shirts:




It's been fun watching these girls grow up & now we have 4 more years with them until they all graduate high school. I can't even think about that yet!


The last week of school kicked off with athletic awards:


Those are all of the trophies our team won this year. Sadie won 2 awards. The first was the High Five, which is the hardest to get & only a few girls in her grade got it. It meant she made all 5 sports teams throughout the year: volleyball, cross country, basketball, track & soccer:


She also won the soccer MVP award, which didn't surprise me one bit. Those were the same 2 awards she won last year also:



On Thursday, the 8th grade class went to Main Event for their year-end party. I chaperoned, which let's be honest, is kind of not necessary at this point but it at least allowed me to be able to sneak a few pictures:



Their last day of school was on Friday:



She was determined to go most of the day but then I picked her up early. Her & Kenzie snuck out together, so this was literally their last walk out of Griffin:


She had a few friends over that night for a sleepover:


and then they headed to the 8th grade grad party:


A few of the boy moms planned a party with a dj, food, dancing, raffles & it was so cute! Summery & Aloha themed:


Thankfully one of my friends was the photographer & she did a great job capturing all of the fun that night:








It was an awesome week watching these kids celebrate the end of an era. Aloha Wakeland!
