I'll be honest, at first when I heard about the preschool graduation for Hudson, I thought it wouldn't be that big of a deal, but when I got there I found myself emotional and proud of all that Hudson had accomplished educationally over the last two years. The kid has learned a TON and grown a TON (he was the tallest out of his entire class)! Anyway, needless to say, Justin and I were really proud parents of a super handsome five year old that day!

I made him wear a button up and tie that day, it took some convincing that it was "okay to wear church clothes to school for graduation".
hudgrad_001.jpghudgrad_002.jpgAfterward he told me, "Mom, they got it wrong, I want to be a BASKETBALL player when I grow up!" Cute, but not as funny as the other kid in his class that wanted to work at Nordstrom when he got older, lol!

I didn't even know he knew how to pledge allegianced!
hudgrad_004.jpghudgrad_005.jpgLike father, like son! Everything about Hudson screams Justin in this photo, SO funny!

Hi Amelia! Great working with you yesterday! It seems like you've got such a beautiful family, inside and out! At the rate Hudson's growing, I think he can start in the NBA in a couple of years!

Wonderful! Love this! Special moments like this should be captured, and although many photographers are interested in selling photos online, being able to showcase their talent in this manner will only help.

no WAY. Hudson has the coolest style. I'm guessing he had some help from his awesome parents with the look. Man, could you guys be any less rad?
