School's Over!!!

And are our girls excited!  L's last day was Thursday and J's was Friday.  The 8th graders were a little teary-eyed when it hit them that they wouldn't be in the same class together next year.  One bad thing about private middle school -- they'll all be going to different high schools.  :-(

After work yesterday I helped decorate for grad night.  We're working together with 4 other high schools in the area.  Each school decorates a different area, then their kids get to use the whole building after graduation.  It'll be used five times this week.  L's school is first on Monday.  The whole building has a cruise ship theme.  We decorated the formal dining area and bathrooms.  Yes, even the bathrooms are decorated.  The boys bathroom in the main area looks like an engine room -- filled with gauges, etc.  There's also a spa, theater, dance floor, top deck (for Titanic-like photos, I'm sure), casino, and other show and game areas.  There will also be bounce houses & slides outside and they can use the bowling alley next door.  The party's from 11 pm to 5 am.  I would much rather set up than stay up all night & try to make it to another graduation the next day.

J's class divided up their school year and each student took a week to show appreciation to their teachers.  We had the last week of school so here are some of the things we made and sent for her teachers:




And we have a few more photos from Senior Ball last week.  Mitch's dad took these.  They call their first on their "Get Smart" photo.

Sharing Fun Photos

Didn't take any photos today.  Instead I picked up some paperwork for L... Here's her BIG news:  She has a job!!!!!!!!!  Woo Hoo!!!!!  We're probably as excited as she is.  And it's a dream job for her.  She started looking within walking distance, then along the bus route and couldn't find anything.  So, she'll be working at my favorite local scrapbook store, My Daughter's Wish.   They have a couple of weeks of Summer Art And Scrapbook camps and she's helping with a birthday party tomorrow.  She went in for a couple of hours yesterday and said she thought it was going to be fun. 

Then I went to J's school to help one of her teachers count & put away textbooks.  Then J & I went to Trader Joe's & the regular grocery store for supplies for the grad party this weekend and ingredients for Nana's birthday cake.  She's coming in tomorrow evening and will spend a few days with us so she can see the girls graduate.  We're gonna keep her busy.  We have 3 graduations and 3 grad parties to go to while she's here!!!  

Lauren got her formal photos today at school (her LAST day of high school, btw).  But here are a few that show her & her friend's true personalities.  :-)
