Getting old and moving on


My childs are getting old.  My second eldest is graduating herself from HS and from our house, and it's the worst!!!

First, when we drove home from CA, we followed a storm with the sun behind us, and got this aMAZing view of an incredible rainbow.  And of course, the picture can't even try to come close to capturing the bright intensity of the colors.  Here's a pano we stopped for.  The colors were reflecting light back into the mist around them..

 

Oh, and it was Memorial Day.  Here are the memes.  Even if they're cheesy, just look past it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Wednesday, we enthusiastically showed up at the Marriott Center.





This superstar daughter was in the choir... so proud of this girl.  And the JumboTron had the best pictures of her singing, so JumboTron it is.

 

 

And then she walked...




And was too cute:
Outside, she was Knighted a Daughter of the Realm with symbols of glory... flowers, ribbon, and candy.

 

As the commoners looked on in awe:

 

 

We got a truckload of sushi from Tsunami - we know you're jealous you weren't there - we'll save some for you next time. NO PIC!!  And then Carlie went out partying.

 

 

Thursday morning:

 



We went and helped my mom move, while Miranda went to work and Carlie went out again to a Girls' Night:



And out of nowhere...

 

Sorry.  Back to Square One.

Morgan got together with his friends to mourn the moving of one of their besties to Mapleton.  Even though it's only 50 min away, you know how that can actually be a death sentence for your friendship unless you make a concerted effort to get together.  Nickname: Dip

 

Then church happened, and Jeff was sleeping in the closet with every single pair of shoes I owned.  Like every single one.  SO... Halle's birks it is.  Thanks, Hal!!

 

Another fashion experience at church... the matching sibs.

 

Memes!!!
