Graduation

Ahh! I Graduated! :) The events of this weekend are still a blurr. I have been so anxious-excited-nervous-sad that I don't remember many details about my graduation! Crazy--I know! But Luckily I have pictures that jog my memory of all the fun and exciting things that happened this weekend!



The Senior Walk of fame opened at 4 o'clock. It was so fun to see every one's displays and look at all the pictures from the past.
At 5 there was a dinner for the families the the graduates. This ice sculpture was one of the many spectacular decorations!
7 o'clock came too quickly. As we waited outside to enter the church--reality hit--and we realized this would be like last time we would all be together as the Senior class of The First Academy. All the teachers were lined up down the walk way, as we walked through the infamous 'Tunnel of Tears.' We were able to say goodbye to all our teachers, even lower school. Surprisingly I didn't cry.

From this point on is where things are a blurr. I remember waiting for my name to be called behind the stage, and taking pictures with everyone, but when my name was called I don't remember hearing anything he read about me!


The closing remarks were given by Pastor Uth. This was the saddest part of the whole ceremony. Pastor Uth has been meeting with us once a month since the end of last year to pray with us, and see how we are doing. This part was not in the schedule, but he called us all to come to the alter where we had started our journey one year ago and he prayed with us one last time.

After was just a big celebration :)My little cousin, Shelby, and I

And we know in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.

My daughter was graduating so I wanted so real cute, but inexpensive, photo graduation announcements, and I found several good sites, Graduation Cards Shop, Cards Shoppe and Announcements-Shoppe. They all have real unique graduation invitations, and you can use my own wordings with lots of sample graduation sayings for me to use. I ordered from Graduation Cards Shop, and the graduation cards were beautiful. I got lots of compliments.
