Last Day

Friday was the last day of school for the year, and it was a very busy one for us.  We got the girls off to school and then had to start running errands to get ready for vacation which starts tomorrow.  We started off by dropping Alison off at school and saying a thank you to her teacher.  Ali really thrived under her this year and we were very grateful for that.  Then we managed to get a couple of things done before we had to be back three hours later to get Ali picked up.

After getting home, I needed to get the grass cut quickly while Sarah ate some lunch and started getting ready for her "completion ceremony".  Why they can't call it a graduation ceremony, I have no idea.  Unless they didn't want to tell the kids who didn't graduate that they didn't graduate.

So after the grass was done it was time to get ready.  Sarah's ceremony started at 5:00 PM but she had to be there by 4:00 PM.  We figured, what is the point of going home.  Besides, we would be able to choose a good seat in the auditorium. I videoed the majority of the ceremony, so maybe I'll upload it if I have the ambition.  The ceremony was scheduled to last from 5:00 - 7:00 which was a pretty good estimate.  We cleared out at about 6:45 and we were one of the last ones there.  Afterward, we headed home to finish packing for vacation.  So all in all it was a very busy, hectic day.  It'll be nice to finally get some rest.
