Graduation!!!

Well my friends, I graduated. And although it was such a marvelously fun time to spend hours and hours with a billion and one books over the last 13 years, I think that I'm glad it's over. Here are a few pictures from the graduation. I enjoyed the ceremony, and we had a really good speaker. Really good, as in we actually were able to get something out of what he said. :o) I would say the only down fall of the night was when I decided to test my speach capabilities, and thank my parents, friends, and God, etc.. Well, let's just make this story short and put it this way, if you're going to say something to a few hundred people, stand a bit closer to the microphone, adjust it to your height, and maybe speak a little bit louder and don't get suddenly emotional and just about cry. There you go, words of wisdom from the Graduate. :o)

I graduated with a bunch of people that I actually knew. (this is amazing for the homeschooler) This is me and Heidi, I think that we got a picture of Tobi w/ us girls, but I am going to have to steal that one from who ever's camera it was on.

Dad and I...

Jenni and I...

Emily and I...

Kassandra and I...

And... The Mommy, the Lanae` and the Dad! (just in case you guys didn't know that)

Graduation Party!!

Graduation was fun, but I think that I had the most fun afterwards at the party at the church. Let's just say that my dad can pick some awsome games... :0)





Kassandra and I bobbing for ding dongs in milk. (our version of bobbing for apples, way funner, and a bit sweeter too.)




We did one of those skits where you have two people behind a sheet, one person is the head and uses their hands for the feet, and the other person is the hands. What they were acting out, was Heidi, Tobi, and I growing up. We (Kassandra played the girls and Mike played Tobi) had to learn how to dress ourselves, feed ourselves, read our bibles, shave, put makeup on, etc. Here's just a few of the pictures:







That's Mike on the left (not the right, silly) with Jordan being his hands, and that's Kassandra on the right, with Tori being her hands.









Apparently Tori thought that Kassandra needed more lip gloss!














Mike learns how to shave.











This is Jordan and Mike "bobbing" for marshmellows in flour. (they had to get 5 out of the bowl)

Note:
"Do not try this at home children"






There were some other games that we played, and other people also played, but these were just the highlighted ones. :-)
