What a week

Okay – so you will never believe the graduation ceremony. Let me back up – this last week we have had record heat – I think we hit 110 the first of the week and we were so worried that we would be melting during the ceremony, but then on graduation night Thursday we sat in 60 degrees, blowing wind and pouring rain in the football stadium for Morgan’s graduation. Can you believe it. They had considered moving it inside but then that would only allow 2 tickets per student. So they just crossed their fingers, hoping it would blow over and about 15 min into graduation the thunder began and down came the rain. It was crazy. Who would have ever thought on May 22nd in Phoenix, AZ we would be wet and freezing at graduation ????? It was completely crazy and a graduation no one will ever forget. The graduating seniors had a great time even in the rain..
Karleigh is now an official HIGH SCHOOLER and she is scared and excited !!!! But lucky for her Dylan will be a senior. Isn’t that every girls dream, to be a freshman and have a very cute older brother that is a senior!!! They get along so well also that it will be so awesome for them to share the beginning and the end of high school together. He will take very good care of her.
Kelly received his letter in track & field. Pretty awesome, considering he is only a sophomore. He loves to run and really did well this year. both in cross country and in track & field.
So next year all of my grandchildren will be in school :
Marissa: Junior at BYU
Morgan: College freshman
Dylan: H.S. Senior
Kelly: H.S. Junior
Karleigh: H.S. Freshman
Taylor: 8th grade
Grant & Maddy: 7th grade
Coleton: 6th grade
Logan & Zack: 4th grade
Alli: 3rd grade
Tyler: Kindergarten
Wow, I'm getting older by the minute.. well maybe not.. I will try to keep up with all these great kids..

The weather has been so crazy over the past few days! Your granddaughter and her friends will always have stories now about graduating in the rain in Phoenix. She looked like she was having fun regardless of the weather.
