The Graduate

It’s really hard these days to realize (and remember!) that these two little girls have now both graduated from high school!! But it’s true! This past weekend we celebrated Hayley’s graduation from Marysville High School, and the emotions were running high as we did our best to pick her out of the 400 +/- blue gowned young adults that were marching across into the stadium.

There she is! In front of the girl with the dress hanging beneath her graduation gown –

I’m not going to kid you- it was a cold and blustery night and maybe sometimes it seemed like they were never going to get through all of those names. But when we were able to join her on the field after the ceremony for hugs and congratulations, it was all worth it!

Here’s the whole gang of us – some being sillier than others!

Two years ago, at Ellie’s graduation, the three older sisters struck this pose –

It seemed only right to recreate the pose at this graduation too!

How fun!

On a slightly different note – there often seems to be one picture during an event that really cracks me up. Back in 2021, at Ellie’s graduation, it was this one –

Ah, sisters!
This year, it involved a different sibling, but I caught Hayley taking a selfie with Noah (Class of 2029) looking on!

Oh, the faces of brothers!

But back to the star of the show –

H. Conrad – Class of 2023
Where have the years gone? May you continue to hold fast to your Savior, and glorify Him in all you do! I know He has great things planned for you! Pops and I were so glad we were able to be there to celebrate YOU and this milestone in your life!
