She did it!! Regan participated in the first (of many in her life) graduation ceremonies. And what a ceremony it was, held at a local community college! Of course, I was that tearful mom seated center stage, watching as my little girl proved to be ready to tackle Kindergarten next year. She cheerfully sang, she energetically danced and she proudly talked in the microphone. We had a lovely celebration and are so proud of you Regan!
Here's a couple videos from the day:

(clearly someone isn't afraid of performing in front of a crowd!)
Unfortunately she wasn't real interested in pictures with her cap/gown, claiming to be hot; although I think she knew that the faster she left her gown behind, the sooner she could grab a piece of cake with her friends.
Katie, Regan, Melissa.
Once home, she discovered balloons to celebrate and presents! Of course she had oodles of presents to open with both sets of grandparents on hand today.
We spent the afternoon lounging poolside. Below, Sidney is trying to convince Grandma Sheri that the pool really isn't that cold...Grandma isn't buying it.
Regan plays t-ball on Wednesdays for our former city team. It was a great opportunity for the grandparents to check out a game while they were in town.
Then it was on to ice cream treats after the game. Sidney clearly preferred Papa's treat over her own and then completely crashed on the drive home. Poor girl was without a nap on this very busy day.
And once we got home, the 'school ager', as she is now called, wanted to play on her new swing from Grandma Jan/Papa. "It's just so much fun, mom!"
Congratulations on your big day Regan!
