Please pardon my long absence! We've been very busy around here with all the events before during and after the celebration of our graduate! What a fun whirlwind it has been.
Turning the tassles....and then...tossing the caps into the air Some of my shots aren't in focus, I was far, far away in the stands, but I love this shot just the same. Can you see my girl? She has a light blue sash on. The shot of her tossing her cap reminds of the Mary Tyler Moore show opening. I know, many of you never saw that show, it was before your time. Don't remind me of my age, having a daughter graduate high school is reminder enough ;).
She is posing for someone else's parents, I'm still too far away.
Yay! Captured her excitement pretty well as we found her right after.
Finding Daddy as she came off the field.
Aunt and cousin come from afar to celebrate.
Even Mom and brother feel like celebrating. Graduating felt like a family accomplishment. All for one and one for all, right?
Finding her friends. "We did it!"
More friends came to show their support (having already graduated last year).
Honorary Aunt and Uncle make the trek too.
I am so proud of our girl, she is such an amazing person.
We arrived home to dear friends bringing a feast for all. How kind is that?!? I must remember to do that for friends whose kids graduate! Seriously thoughtful. We were all starving too, and there was no time for dinner out before she had to rush out for grad night.
Another honorary Aunt shares the love.
Proud Papa.
A great time was had by all celebrating our girl. She is so lucky to have so much love in her life!
And shortly after this photo, (it was pitch black, edited so you can see their faces) Mom went to bed, too pooped to pip, but with the alarm set to pick her up from grad night bus at 5:30am...um, why? why can't they return back from their big night of fun at say, 7am? Oh well, one last parental act to conclude those years of education I suppose.
