Moby's looking a bit old and worn and definitely needs a wash. I think it might be time to start looking for a new fishing van.
I'll be devastated to see this one go though.......

Maggie's Graduation Ceremony

Maggie graduated from Kindergarden today.
We're all very proud of her, especially since she went onto the stage and sang (something she wasn't too excited about doing).
These teachers deserve a medal every day!!
