Class of 2015


Some how  we managed to space out our kids in such a way that there is a high school graduation happening every 5 years, except for number 4 and she will wait seven years after the 3rd born graduates. We will have graduates in the Class of 2010, 2015, 2020, and 2027. Homeschooling till Jesus comes....

This year is Karlie's turn.....Earlier this month our church, PCC honored the seniors.


 Class of 2015 at Passion City Church is Sweet.

 Louie gives a charge to the students.
School was almost over...a few more days of school, exams, and party or two, and graduation practice...

Karlie designed her Graduation invitations with a trifold graduation card with all of her senior portraits displayed on the front and back.

 Practice for graduation, at least one parent had to attend. Karl took the day off so that we would both know what we had to do. At a hybrid school graduation, the parents hand the diploma to their student, which means a step on the stage in front of God and everyone....while everyone listen to your prerecorded parent/child blessing.  Since we are "B"'s we were first...sometimes its awesome to be at the front of the alphabet. We had ring side seats, right at the 50  yard line, behind home plate...no big hair to look around or tall heads...it was awesome. The folks behind me though, may or may not have had big hair to look around. 
 Each Senior is giving a half table to display a few of their favorites, passions, etc. Karlie's display included her Pure Fashion Award, her superaltive form her sophomore year as Most Fashionable, and photos of friends, siblings etc...
 Senior parking! Don't think they really meant Senior in High School, but it makes for a cute photo. Karlie found a cute monogram idea on pinterest, and we contacted my friends, Sheila and Joe, to make the monogram with their machine. We kept it a secret in case it was a no no....but it seemed to be a hit. and a couple others joined the creativity and designed their caps by graduation night.
 A big smile at rehearsal, she's been ready for graduation since kindergarten I think. 
Rehearsal was great....
Now on for the Real Thing...
