Our school had a good bye parade and we couldn't miss it. It was nice but sad at the same time. We love Tiffany Park and the staff there. I didn't start crying until I saw Jewlie Hagen crying. Even Max said he had something in his eyes. Afterwards we met at the park and played with friends.

Mr. Collins. One of the biggest contributors to the heart of Tiffany Park. He is the PE teacher/assembly behavior management/PTA volunteer. He is so giving. He made Field Day happen and taught the kids dances for Spring Social. He would do the bouncy house for us at events. He is one in a million.
Oh and my new Relief Society came to meet me and Evelyn took this awesome picture. She even brought us pizza.
