Lillian's Graduation Party

Why do you think this family looks so happy and proud?

It's because Lillian graduated from Cabot high school this week, and in the fall she'll be attending Harvard.
Wes and Joanie went to the graduation ceremony Friday evening. Joanie lent me the memory card from her camera so that I could post these pictures. Thanks Joanie!

As valedictorian of her class, she gave a speech.

Aunts and cousins from the Slocum side helped organize the party. This was the smoothie bar. Very yummy!

Thank goodness Chelsea was present to keep an eye on Heather.

Alexanders...
More Alexanders...

It was great the way Susan and Cedric had set up these tables outside in the front yard. It was a beautiful day, for a change.

I think Paul feels a little like a third wheel in this picture.

Wayne made me nervous on this swing, but he was having a great time.

Then there was the trampoline...

and basketball...

and flowers to look at...

and a pond to catch frogs and to swim in. The kids were the only ones brave enough to go in.

Heather was furious that I had not brought her suit so that she could also go in the water, but sitting with Joanie on the dock seemed to calm her down.

Martha took Cole on a tour of the pond.

Lillian with the Slocums.
It was a beautiful day and a very fun party. Congratulations and best wishes to Lillian.
