Carly is 12

Carly has only been at one school her whole life--pre-school through 6th grade.

She is soooo ready to leave.  This is our tradition.  When you leave a school you do a jump in front of the school.

This is her last teacher.  He was not her favorite teacher while at Harada, but she did have some teachers that changed her forever.

He did have them do a fun project about colleges they want to attend.  She made sure dad saw this.  Carly was the only one who wanted to be a Cougar...yes she figured out she spelled it wrong after it was put up.

Bridging ceremony...whatever that is.

 It was also her 12th birthday on her last day of school.  She got her driveway decorated in chalk.

 An ice cream cake to eat since it has been over a hundred degrees this week. 

 Nothing says Happy Birthday like a Justin Bieber concert.  I have been to a lot of concerts, but this was literally the loudest concert I have ever been too.  I can't believe how loud screaming girls can be....not these three.  I think I had 6 Tylenol in the span of 3 hours.   It was no joke.

 So proud of the person you are becoming.  I wish I was as caring as you.
