Bree's Grade 8 Grad

(The above underlined statement is a link to a video of Bree's grade 8 year, kindly compiled by Judge Bryant for the students. If you click on it, you can watch the video. You have to watch carefully...but Bree is there!)

So last night was the end of an age for our family....The last of my girls graduated from Grade 8! And if I might say so, she did it with flying colors!

She won two trophies this year...one for honor role, and another for French!

Way to go Breanne!

All of that hard work finally paid off!

and that despite some trouble with other kids in her class because she wouldn't join the "drinking, smoking" crowd...or the in crowd...

I spent the entire night video taping and crying.

(Which I would have been doing anyways, because I am hormonal....)

She was absolutly gorgeous too! (the most beautiful one up there...)

She didn't look much like my little girl, bree 5

that's for sure, with her fancy dress, and her first makeup and her hair done up so nice...

(I will post pics when I get them developed...)

Now it is on to high school, and a whole new set of decisions and trials....

In a way for Bree it will be like her first year in kindergarten all over again...

That first step into a school with a whole bunch of bigger kids....

new rules...new teachers...new challenges...

but I think she is up to it...

She has never been afraid of what anyone thinks, and she is proud of who she is and what she believes in.

Congrats Bree! We Love You!
