I loved the flowers we gave Leesha, I almost kept them for myself! 
The gates of the stadium opened at 6:00pm. Graduation began at 7:30pm.I probably don't even have to tell you that Jim fell asleep and Naissa and Isaac got restless. I actually brought the little movie player and until the crowd got too loud and they couldn't hear it, Naissa and Isaac watched "Hairspray". It was windy which made it somewhat cold. The sun was descending beyond the trees but still illuminating the field which made the decision whether to wear sunglasses or not a difficult one. The stands filled quickly, the chairs on the field not as quickly. 
When it was finally time to begin the mass of red, white and blue robes poured down out of the stands across the way. Finding a short blonde didn't take too long, thanks to the extra cords on her robe. As the students marched in, the band played the song from Star Wars IV. The ceremony march where Luke, Han and Chewie get medals for (temporarily) defeating the empire. I don't think I've heard it played at graduation before, it was very cool. I kept waiting to hear Chewbacca's cry or R2-D2's little beeps and chirps but I didn't. Instead I watched as my beautiful Leesha walked in high heels down the aisle to take her place with the rest of her class.

That was the best we got, Isaac was blurry in most of the pictures because he'd been sitting for so long! He was doing flips and rolls to entertain those parents and grandparents who had been abandoned by their new graduates to go take pictures with their friends.
She's done. At least until August when she starts at Fresno State!

Wow!!! Congrats Leesha!!! I can't believe she is graduating from high school already!! Craziness!
Another question: Do you think Jade would like to come up early camping with me? Chris will not be there. He'll be gone for 3 solid weeks and I thought it might be nice to have some help with Alex. Especially in the middle of the night if I have to pee or something, I won't have to leave him alone in the tent.. Anyway, I am going up Thurs July 17th and staying through either Sun or Mon (we'll see how we feel).. So that's it.. I could come pick her up and she could stay with me and Alex and then either go home with Jimmy or I could drop her back off at home.. Okay.. Well let me know what she and you think.. Cathy said she was going to camp soon.. So, I figured I'd better get on it..
Love you guys and can't wait to see everyone.. Love, Lacey
