In some parts of the country, it is not a big deal when a child makes the transition from middle school to high school. In California, it's a big deal. We know it's not a high school or college graduation but it's a way to pause and acknowledge your child's accomplishments. It's a way to mark the end of a stage in their lives and set expectations for the next.
And of course, it's an excuse to have a P-A-R-T-Y!
This past weekend, we celebrated Mateo's and my nephew, Andy's 8th grade promotion. The theme for the party was inspirational -and cheesy quotes.

Congratulations, Andy and Mateo! I'm so proud of you! |
The party was at my mom's house. I just love her garden. I'll have to do a garden tour post soon. Stay tuned for that.
