Ryan's kindergarten graduation!

Ryan had his kindergarten graduation ceremony on Thursday night!
He was very nervous about performing in front of so many people (about 400!) as this was the first year the school combined the ceremony so all kindergarten classes had their ceremony together.
These pictures were taken in the classroom before heading to the multi-purpose room. Hurray, he wore the hat!


This picture is dark but it is the only one we have of the principal handing Ryan his scroll.

During the ceremony the kindergarten students (about 80) performed eight different songs. Ryan did not sing any of them but he stayed up there and stood still during the entire thing so we are very proud of him!
Here he is following the ceremony (love the happy smile!):

And with his friend Phoenix, who was in his same class, and with one of his graduation gifts we gave him, a stuffed puppy:

Congratulations Ryan - we know you will do great in first grade!
