April’s 8th Grade Promotion!, originally uploaded by daveparker.
Today April formally completed middle school in a promotion ceremony at Williams Middle School in Tracy, my little girl now moves on to High School! It’s really hard to believe sometimes. I am so proud of her, she has worked so hard this year trying to keep up with all the stuff she has going on: dance, choir(x2), band, girl scouts, drama club and 2-3 hours a night of homework. Great job April, you did it! Enjoy the summer, High School is coming fast!
She was wearing Dave (the boyfriend’s) hat when she pulled up today in the truck, she is such a country girl, I love it! Says she borrowed the hat for LAC in a couple weeks. Meanwhile Dave had to get back to Fort Lewis, his weekend leave over. I know she is much more relaxed knowing that he is at least stateside, but I am sure she will miss him.

This week was spirit week at Marina’s school, Monday was crazy hair day!
Marina caught this little guy today in the yard while bug hunting and let her crawl up her arm for a photo!
Last weekend was a photo shoot for an upcoming show that April is performing in. She has been taking a Ballet class here in town and doing really well, that girl loves to dance!
They call me Doctor Love!
Here are April and her friend Alissa at a talent show at her school!
A few pics of the concert that we were in last Saturday night. It was a total blast and it went really well. Lisa and I both had solos (good job Lisa!). Veronica and Marina were in the front row, thanks guys for the support and the great pics! April is also in the choir however she had to miss this show because her middle school band was in a band compitition in Santa Clara the same day, she was bummed but hey they won second place!
