Graduation

Right before Graduation

John, Katie, Jonathon, Andrew and Lindsay playing Mexican Doninoes

This weekend was Lindsay's high school graduation. It was at Allen Fieldhouse on the KU campus. And of course it was the hottest and the most humid day of the year. Oh and did I mention the fieldhouse has no AC. Other than the heat it was a wonderful day. We had 16 family members that came. After supper and before the after grad party Lindsay taught Katie and John how to play Mexican dominoes which is a favorite game at the Johnsons. My little girl is all grown up now. And now she has to go out into the real world!

Rachel is FINALLY 15

This is Rachel's teacher Angela

If you would ask Rachel she would tell you it took forever for her birthday to get here. Then when it did get here we couldn't celebrate it because of a Senior awards ceremony for Lindsay. She didn't want to go and insisted she was 15 now and could stay home by herself. She did go and complained the whole time. But last night we did have a small party and it was all about her. She had a great time with some friends and her teacher came too. We watched the DVD of her last play High School Musical and had cake and ice cream.

Prom 2008

My beautiful daughter all dressed up for Prom. This is not her boyfriend, just a friend. He is the same boy she has gone with to all the dances but 1.

Our very last band concert

I have been down all week at work with no INTERNET! It has been terrible! I haven't been able to post or even read anyone's blogs. I know I could get on at home but our computers are soooooo slow. So much easier to do it here.

Wednesday was our very last band concert. I do believe Rachel is very happy about this. I on the other hand am sad. Monday will be the last choir concert and I do believe it will be pretty emotional for ME! Tomorrow is prom so I will post some prom pictures on Monday. Happy Mothers Day to all you mom's.
