Homeschool Graduation Banquet

One of the blessings of homeschooling is graduating your children.  It feels like the end of a journey but really it is just another beginning.  The theme for our states graduating class is "The Adventure Begins." Last night we had the banquet for the graduates.  It was a wonderful evening.  I have been on the decorating committee.  Everything turned out wonderful.  We had a lovely dinner, games, a wonderful speaker, a pastor that prayed over the graduates, then line dancing.  I love getting together with other homeschool parents and their children.  We have similar standards and goals for our families.  It feels like the children are so respectful and happy.  The night was very special and we all rejoiced in celebrating our graduates.

Sierra was absolutely stunning.  My mother had taken her to get her hair done.  We got her dress at JC Penny's and made a couple modifications to it.  It was gorgeous on her.  It is hard to believe her homeschooling is coming to an end.  It hits me in waves of emotion but overall it is with great excitement I approach her graduation.  A couple of the girls at the banquet were in our "Bright Lights" group.  It was so wonderful to see them.

What a great evening and we look forward with great expectation to the adventure ahead. God bless you all and have a great day.
