Off to High School!


Last night Ellysa had her 9th Grade Celebration to mark the end of her time in Junior High School. Hard to believe she'll be a sohpomore up at the high school next year, but you can't stop time marching on! (you may WANT to, but you can't. we've tried. and failed. so trust us.)



She still gets a little smirky when she notices I've got the camera on her... Moments later she was standing to be recognized for making the school's Honor Roll!



After the awards and celebration ceremony, she and her best friend Karisa went to the formal end of the year dance, then to a sleepover at Karisa's house. Today was a couple of generally meaningless hours at school, followed by the long awaited start of summer vacation!

...oh crap, she's turning 15 and a half in a few weeks... which means summer will include *gasp* dri-dri-dri-dri-.......driv-driv..... Responsible Automobile Operation Instruction.

Wish us luck!! And Wish HER luck in High School!
