it's all about him

we gave Q a camera to use during caroline's graduation ceremony.  he took very interesting pictures.

 

this is his butt

 

sigh.

pomp and circumstance

today was caroline's pre-k graduation.

phew. i didn't think she was gonna make it #sarcasm

what follows are terrible photos for several reasons:

1. the lighting in this conference room is atrocious
2. my camera is not all that great
3. i am not all that great at photography
4. many of the family and friends of the other grads were wicked obnoxious, pushing and elbowing to get to the front, clogging the aisles instead of staying in seats, using giant ipads as cameras, and just generally thinking that they and their child were the most important people there #endrant

the procession

 

singing the songs which i wanted to video but didn't bother since i don't need a video of someone else videoing this with an ipad #notbitter

diploma time. 

i had to push people whose kids had already walked out of the way in order to get in and get these shots. #soannoying

unofficial portraits

she was melting down because the cake line was really long and she was worried there wouldn't be any left because i was wasting time taking pictures. it was a giant cake.  it was not really an issue.  but damn she was worried about it.

half smile.  i'll take it.

still monster jammin' it

it's hard to believe that Q's first monster jam event was more then 4 years ago. he still loves it after all this time.  we just spent a small fortune on tickets for two upcoming shows, so i made an autograph book on snapfish using all the photos we've taken at events over the years.  we have been to 21 monster jam shows.  yeah 21.

sassy

beauty and the "beast"

big brother saves the day

caroline was stressing out about what to bring for share day today. their blend of the week is "gr" and she couldn't think of anything to bring.

Q suggested grave digger. i expected her to protest because it's not a "girl" toy.

but she didn't. instead she thought it was a fantastic idea.

nice job, buddy.

yup

that is a gr word.

cute cute cute

that's not how it works

caroline, after being asked why she sucks her thumb: "because i'm thirsty."
