Whew! The last couple of weeks have been a whirlwind. No blog last week, no real reason why other than I forgot. Does that tell you anything about how busy things have been? I have been writing the blog for 12 years and somehow, last Sunday I simply forgot to do it.
It has been graduation season around here. The graduations started with my niece, Maude. She graduated last Tuesday from West Linn High School. Next, she is headed off to travel Europe.
Next up for graduation was our Elsie girl. She graduated preschool in a sweet ceremony that involved performing some of the songs we learned throughout the year. She was brave and did a great job performing in front of all the families. She got a graduation cap and certificate and is now officially kindergarten bound.
Up next was 8th grade graduation for my nephew, Kai. Jeremy doesn't think 8th grade counts as an actual graduation, but in any case he is on to high school.
Not a graduation, and last but certainly not least, Merrick and Carrigan had their last days on Thursday. Merrick completed 7th grade and CC completed 4th grade. Merrick finished with as little pomp and circumstance as possible. CC celebrated with friends at a park and then at the river.
Here are the last day photos of all three kids.
Yesterday, we celebrated the end of the year and a rare weekend off baseball with a hike at Silver Falls (well all of us but CC who was off having adventures with my sister).
