The final week of the school year is here. It started with Alyssa's graduation party yesterday afternoon. A mom from school made Alyssa's cake complete with an edible photo of the girl.
Little Chloe who is 5 was very excited to get to eat a piece with Alyssa's face on it. We didn't have as many guests as we thought, but this was a busy weekend for weddings, sports tournaments, and other graduation celebrations. Alyssa's friends came in waves so they weren't all here at the same time. The weather finally warmed up and reminded us why we love to live here. Forrest manned the grill and cooked delicious burgers and hot dogs, my friend Erin made her famous beans, and Tracy brought a beautiful fruit tray. I've finally learned to take help when it is offered. I don't have to do all of the food prep when my amazing friends are willing to pitch in. Today Alyssa will attend several parties for her friends.
Then tomorrow is the senior picnic and then graduation is Tuesday night. Michelle came up for the party since she can't make it to the mid-week graduation ceremony. Forrest's mom arrives tomorrow night, and my folks will come to town Tuesday. Then we'll move onto Noah's events. All of the 8th graders will spend Wednesday at Wild Waves amusement park and have their recognition ceremony Thursday. My school year will end Friday with field day and a staff salmon barbecue. I'm getting tired just thinking about all of this activity to come in the next few days.
