6 down and 1 to go :)

We had a graduation in the house this last week - for Mr. Chad - doesn't he look thrilled?
The victory jump that we've gotten of all the kids at this point in their life . . but I was a little too quick with the snap

that's better - YE-HAW!

OOPS! This is out of order - "the morning AFTER the grad night party"

One of our traditions has been to go to Ixtapa for dinner before the big graduation ceremony, so here's everyone congregating

Good friend, Maurine Elwell, with daughters Melissa and Dana. Maurine's son Michael also graduated.
