Alyson graduated from Kamiakin High School on Saturday, June 3rd.
Presley, Harper and I drove to Kennewick on Friday night and stayed the night with Grandma.
Papa stayed home with them after they went to bed, and Mom and I went to the high school where Amy and Thomas were decorating for the Senior party.
I think it had been a long week for all the Lindholm's.
On Saturday morning, we tried to show up early to the Toyota Center to secure a box seat for our whole group. We found one with an unlocked door and camped out there for a little while. Unfortunately, another family showed up and told us you have to reserve one of the boxes early and that this one was their's. Ooops....we ended up kind of in the back of the arena, but we had good seats to watch her walk in.
Cristy made us the letters to hold up.
The moment we saw her ...
and she saw us (or maybe heard us first)!
It was a nice graduation ceremony. It wasn't too long as another school was holding their graduation a few hours later.
Smarty pants Grandma brought her binoculars.
Miryn gave us kisses and fed us grapes throughout the ceremony.
Alyson received a very special award for her commitment to the Sports Medicine program from her teacher. She has volunteered many, many hours to the program.
Waving to us on her way out (she did find her cap).
We met outside of the building to take lots of pictures.

And I snuck in for a picture with Alyson too.
She was wearing this necklace made out of athletic tape.
Each of the sports med students wrote a message to her on the rolls.

Papa had made these big Alyson heads.
That's a whole lotta Alyson right there!
And most of the people who came to her graduation ceremony!
Alyson and Mylee went to some graduation parties.
The rest of us went to eat lunch, and then over to Papa Berries apartment to get a tour.
We drove home and arrived about 8:00.
Mylee sent me a sweet text as I was driving.
Wouldn't miss it for the world Mylee!
In two years, 3 out of the 4 here will be graduating!
Mathew, Mike, and Mylee
(Logan at the end will be the following year, 2020)
