Maddie's High School Graduation

This is a long post - with a lot of pictures so beware!

It was a busy day for us yesterday.  We had Maddie's graduation

and my niece, Abi got married at the same time.  We tried our best to

be 2 places at once. 
Here is the graduation post...

Before graduation, we took Maddie out to one of favorite restaurants -
"La Jolla Groves"

She looked so beautiful and all grown up on her way to graduation

It worked out so well because Talbie was supposed to be there at

graudation with her new student council sweater on to hand out programs

at the Marriott Center.  They both had to be there early so they went together.

On their way :)

When it was time to move the tassel from the left side to the right side,

her's got caught in her hair and she had to have the girl next to her

help her get it out :)

I love my camera because I can take extreme close-ups and was able to get this picture.

Maddie and her friends.  I will miss these kids so much! 

Most of them have been around since preschool.
