this was another week of graduations.

after the ceremony we headed down town to a restaurant to celebrate with friends & family...

last night eryn graduated from high school!!
it was surreal.
i remember putting her on the school bus for the first time like it was yesterday....sigh.

 her girls...

 with her best cousin & best friend aaron...

 class of 2012...

 this was our view....the back of eryn's head :)!

 getting her diploma...

 flipping the tassel to the other side of the hat...graduated!!!

 singing their class song 'saviour like a shepherd lead us'...but not the familiar one we know~it was beautiful :)

 with grampa & sylvia...

 a quick family pic before we go home...

 a fun one...just act crazy normal everyone...

for all those graduating...
my prayer is this for you:
{taken from the song 'words i would say' by sidewalk prophets}


Be strong in the Lord and,
Never give up hope,
You're going to do great things,
I already know,
God's got His hand on you so,
Don't live life in fear,
Forgive and forget,
But don't forget why you're here,
Take your time and pray,
Thank God for each day,
His love will find a way,
