The grads always have a parade - J rode on her friend's 4-wheeler.
Before the graduation ceremony we took a few family pictures . . .
. . . and a few of J and her close friends.
J was one of 6 in her class that got an award for getting marks above 90% in at least 5 classes this year. Congratulations, J!
She was pretty excited!
In the evening they had a banquet for the graduates and their parents. It was pretty nice! The decorating committee worked hard to transform the auditorium. The theme of the evening was "One Night in Paris". There was an Eiffel Tower in the entrance that you walked under, a cafe, a bridge, the Paris skyline on the walls, and a replica of the Arch of Triumph, which someone's parents worked VERY hard on! It was amazing!

It's pretty hard to believe that this chapter of her life is finished - it's gone so quickly! Soon she'll be starting a new chapter.
We love you so much, J! :o)

Thanks for stopping by my blog and telling me about "Brooten", the town you grew up in that was supposed to really be Braaten.
Congratulations to your daughter on her graduation. She's beautiful.
