Congratulations Michael!

Graduation was at the football field, and since the day was forecasted to be rainy, there was a chance it could get moved indoors and shifted to the evening.  It was raining when we came out of church, but while we had a picnic in the car before graduation, the rain stopped and we were able to go into the stadium and claim seats.  It was still pretty cool and windy outside - I was glad we had all brought coats!




We had about an hour to wait before the graduation, and the boys did great.  They talked to Gaga, played with Kevin, ate mints, played games on our phones and watched all the people.




Once the speakers finished and the kids had started to graduate, I went down onto the field so I could get some pictures of Michael walking across the stage.  I thought this picture of everyone watching was cute.  Check out Karsten looking through his binoculars and Chuck waving at me.


It's almost his turn!


Congratulations Michael!


It took a while but we finally got him to smile!


After sitting for a while, the boys were excited to get out and RUN!


And the obligatory post graduation family photos!  Michael and his mom, Nancy.


Kevin, Nancy and Michael

This one was for Gaga - her two grandchildren!


Look at that - real smiles from both of them!






When we walked back to the car, the boys held hands to stay together - so cute it just melts my heart.
