I really can't believe that my niece Samantha graduated from high school a few weeks ago. I was 16 when she was born and truly spent most of my high school weekends babysitting her. She will be a freshman at A&M next fall- WHOOP!!! We are so proud of her and all her accomplishments. We traveled with all kiddos to Denton to watch her walk across the stage to receive her diploma.
She's the one in red (haha)!
That's her at the beginning of the stage. . .
. . . and there she is getting her diploma.
We brought lots of things to entertain the boys while we waited, but really the ceremony went quick- as quick as it can when you're graduating class has over 600 in it.
Sam picked a fun little pizza place on the square in Denton for us to eat and celebrate with her until she needed to head home to get ready for Project Graduation. Boy, that really brings back memories for me!
People have always said that they think Samantha and I look alike and how I wish that were true. She's super thin, gorgeous, and very fashionable!
Elic and Holden fell asleep while driving the 5 minutes to the pizza place, so we switched off sitting in the truck with them while the other parent ate and enjoyed the family time. Congratulations Samantha! We're so proud of you and can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for your future!
