Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry

Pictures and Awards

The senior pictures are starting to scroll on the school's social accounts. Now it's getting too real. 😭


We opted to take her graduation pictures at places that meant something during her high school years. The one place she spent more time studying than at home was at Panera.


We also took a few at the school.


The stadium picture was cute. It showed off her soccer and cross country sports.


On awards day, she was so late arriving (from not being able to find a place to park) that she missed her Salutatorian award. It was embarrasing, at least for me. When she finally showed up, they called her back on the stage to receive the appropriate recognition. 


The PEO scholarship award was really nice. The lady who gave the announcement was a friend of ours from church.


Then it was senior signing. 


There is a large group going to USC-Columbia! Julia and her roommate are wearing the grey shirts in the front.


And finally, as they exited the school for the last time as students, they walked through a parade of parents, teachers, and students from all three schools (elementary, middle, and high). 


The seniors walked to the stadium for a class photo and pizza lunch.
