Leah's Grad June 09

We went to Sequim for Leah's graduation the day that Ashlyn got out of school.

We took a little drive out to 3 crabs, admired the view, the wind and ate some delicious halibut fish and chips.

Along the way we saw some interesting sites....a redneck limo at it's best.

The beautiful gradute! sniff... sniff... :) Of course, this picture was taken BEFORE she put on her BRIGHT YELLOW converse shoes!

It's official!

Kissin' the diploma - took 12 years to get that thing!

An excited exchange with her friend Louise

Hats off to you! ....literally.

Oh whoops, just a fake. So that pretty much was all for "nothing".

Ok, check out the color-themed converse.

Sisterly hug!

Hug from mom - that's their baby girl. They're both graduates - Leah graduated on to adult/real world life, mom and dad graduated on to empty nester life. At the beginning of our marriage 14 years ago, this moment seemed sooo far away.

An interesting outfit for a graduation - complete with a peacock hair color!

As we hiked down the trail to the water and beach, we met up with a cute little fawn and it's mother taking a stroll.

Me and my better half

Grandma S. and a smilin' bunch

Uncle Jason helped the kids make a fort from this wood.

An attempt at a cute photo....

A little early celebration for Cody's 5th birthday. A good time for cake since we were with family!

I maybe should not have posted this, but it shows the reality of birthdays sometimes! This reaction was really a first for us, and funny that it was caught on video!

A little birthday song....gone a little wrong....
