June 2009 – Kindergarten Graduation and HHI Vacation

June is flying by – must be all the fun!  Will graduated from Kindergarten which makes his 4th Graduation event in 6 years.  In contrast, I can remember 2 graduation events in my lifetime.  Beware:  parental bragging to follow.  He received the Kindergarten Media/Reading award – one of ten special awards given out across all 8 kindergarten classes!  It was so cool to see!  Ok, bragging ends here (for now).

A few days later we packed up the family vehicle and traveled down to Hilton Head Island where we met Mom (Grammy), Dad (Poppy) and Emma for time at the beach.  Hilton Head was a GREAT place for a beach vacation.  Tons of activities, a house with a pool in the backyard walking distance from the beach, running, biking, eating (seafood all but the last day of the trip), kayaking, playgrounding, etc.  It was a really special time with the extended family – Tim even made it down for a day or two.  Not to mention it was Charlie’s 1st vacation and he didn’t seem to mind sleeping in a pack-n-play in the walk-in closet, or at least he didn’t say he minded.  Enjoy the pictures and video below.
