Awards and Graduation

Krissia and Jefferson both had end of the year awards banquets last week. 

Jefferson received a Presidential Fitness Award, Honors Student Award, and an Outstanding Science Student Award.  We are so proud of him and the increased dedication he's shown to academics!  Unfortunately, my camera didn't make it to the ceremony :(

Krissia was recognized as an honor student and for her service on the Student Council at DHHS.  In a seperate ceremony, she was awarded a four year scholarship to Dixie College and named as one of the new ambassadors for that institution.  DEl participated in handing out the Dixie College scholarships, and it was fun to snap a few pictures of the two of them on stage:

Mathison also had his preschool graduation this week, complete with a little program.  Here are some shots from that day:

Cute performer!

I might be biased, but I think Mathison was one of the best performers during the program.  That is, when he wanted to be.  Half of the time, he was fixated on a button which had come undone on his shirt.  Here is a  video showing him singing while trying to fix his button:

He is too funny with that button! Isn't is crazy that you have both a High Schooler graduating, and a pre-schooler! Krissia looks beautiful!

Mathison needs to teach those other kids around him how to smile! Looks like nepotism is strong at Dixie State! J/K
