The Graduate

We aren't quite sure where the past 2 weeks went in the Maholland home, but we do know one thing.  They were very good days!  John's brother, my brother-in-law, graduated from high school.  We had them over for dinner that night, we enjoyed a graduation celebration with family and friends, we had the choir and their families over for dinner, we had the choirs first spring concert, I've been working on practicing for the Music Man production this summer, and we celebrated my last day of the school year.  Shoo.  It kind of  fatigues me going through it all again.  It was a week filled with excitement that's for sure!

We are so proud of Andrew and all that he has accomplished.  We have watched Andrew become such a strong and firm man of God.  He stands in his beliefs and stands up for himself.  We are so very proud of the man he has become this year!  After graduation we enjoyed a small get together at our house for appetizers and gifts for Andrew and his girl friend.

They both graduated this year.  The next day I spent all morning rehearsing for the Music Man (I'm Marian--come out and enjoy some entertainment the end of June, first of July.  It's going to be a massive production)  We then helped the Mahollands set up for Andrew's big celebration.

We enjoyed our afternoon and evening over there celebrating our sweet brother.

It's hard to believe that summer is here.  The first school year teaching is over.  I woke up late this morning and had a problem sitting still.  It's something I'm not used to.  For once in our lives we have really been enjoying family and friends to the max.  John has a new job now where we can have a normal schedule.  It has been beyond the biggest blessing from God.  We are very thankful for all of our time that we now have to make more memories with family and friends!
