And just like that..... Lindsay graduates!

It's hard to believe Lindsay has graduated from high school!  It seems like as she has grown up, each year has gone by faster and faster and her senior year of high school went by in a blink of an eye!

Here is the stage for the ceremonies - the class came up with this as their class saying 'The world may be ending but we're just beginning.'  This came to be since the Mayan calendar ends at the end of this year, but I still think they should have come up with something a bit more inspirational.

Before graduation started, I caught a few of her friends talking with Mr. Dunnells, the favorite teacher of them all.  Mr. Dunnells taught these kids in AP sophomore English and a few took creative writing from him too.  From L to R - Mr. Dunnells, Colter Lowry, Lindsay, Makayle Weldert, Jordan Wheeler and Hayley Hudson.

Marching in to pomp and circumstance

Makenna had seen them practicing for graduation and saw where Lindsay would be sitting. We sent her at 5pm to save seats and she got them at the end of the row where she was sitting - I was happy with these seats!

Look this way, I need a picture!!

Here she is walking to the stage to get her diploma

The graduate!

We couldn't be more proud of Lindsay. She has worked hard all through her high school years and earned high honor status as she graduated.  We know that great things are in her future and can't wait to see what lies ahead for her - She will be going to BYU-I this fall.  She is on the fall/spring track - She's an amazing young lady and brings a special spirit to our home, we will definitely miss her and I'm happy she won't be too far from home! She has accomplished some wonderful things and I know she is ready to move forward,  I just wish it wasn't so hard to see her do that!  Congratulations Lindsay, we sure love you!
