Gray driving & Payton graduating elementary school- big changes in 2013

Gray did a lot of driving on our trip out west.  Can you believe what 6 years can do? (That's how long it has been since we moved here in 2007.)  So, Gray passed his test the first time!  He got his drivers license after our big summer vacation out west.  July 23rd, 2013 & soon after our insurance bill doubled!!  Reality bites! Gray is a good driver.  I am proud of him.  I just pray every day that nothing bad will happen.  Roads are rough!

 Payton on his last Linton Springs Field Day.  Mrs. Zepp and Tozer and Mr. White were his PE teachers and they always did such an amazing job on LSE field day. 

 This year it was a little chilly. 

 Graduation in June, after Payton turned 11.

 Payton has a lot of good memories of this school.  He was here from Kindergarten until promotion day, last day of 5th grade, 6/12/2013.  He has made a lot of friends.  Above he is with Kyle.
