The Graduate (with Honors)

What a life change our family has had. Yes world, Lauren is no longer in High School! And will soon be off to college.  We are all so proud of La La. June 9, 2010, Lauren took part of the West High School Class of 2010 Graduation Commencement. Way to go Lauren.  She graduated with Honors, NHS, and something else(?). Yes, the beautiful smart girl she is! It was a great day.

Lauren is so lucky to have such a big family that love's and supports her. Thank you to all of you that could be there and share in her special moment. Lauren looked beautiful in her Tina Turk dress I found at our favorite store (Bella Forte). 

Yummy Cake from Granite Bakery! It was really good.

She deserves the best. She is awesome!

Tom and I were invited to celebrate the "Seniors" at a lovely dinner party at their house.  It was a perfect evening. Thank you Kay and Harold to hosting such a great party. The food, the flowers and the Seniors.....everything was amazing.  The night even ended with a light rain storm with an amazing rainbow. Here are a few of the pictures from the evening.....
