Graduation Day arrives!

So the day finally came. We couldn't believe that it had and it now seems like such a long road for us, but yet it is over already. Hard to believe really. Jason's grandparents were over from NZ and we were all there of course. It was a good day besides the heat (the basketball court took a long time to cool down and by that time it was time to go.) and we were all so proud!!! When they all finish marching to their spots, Jason is in the first group on the left - last row, 4th from the end. Can you spot him...its a little like that book - wheres Wally. hehe


The kids loved watching the marching and the dogs, and were quite good considering the heat and the hour and a half sitting time. Trent walked in the stadium and said 'wow this is a nice house' - hehe. Here are some more photos of the ceremony.



We took some great family shots after and then went to dinner.

It was a great day and overall, the end of one era and the start of the next for us.
First day at the station starts next Monday.
