D.A.R.E Graduation

Yesterday Natalie graduated from the D.A.R.E program. D.A.R.E stands for Drug Abuse Resistance Education. For 9 weeks the fifth graders get to meet with a police officer from the city and learn about drugs and the consequences of doing them. Every week Natalie would come home telling us how bad drugs and alcohol were. She seemed to really enjoy the program. Hopefully she takes something out of it too.

The school did a little graduation for the kids which they invited the parents to. So of course I showed up with camera in tow ready to video the whole thing, but then I realized my memory card was almost full. So instead I got just a few pictures. And sadly the ones of her actually receiving her "diploma" did not come out good, but I got some good shots of her.
