Mitch's Graduation and the cruise...

First I want to say Thank-you to so many people who have supported Mitch throughout his High School years. He is the Man he is today because of all the wonderful influences in his life. I am so proud of him and the choices he has made and he continues to make. His graduation was a success because of all the love that surrounds him.

I was so pleased when My Mom and niece Melissa flew down the day before to surprise Mitch. I pretend I don't need family but when I saw my Mom at the airport I broke down. I needed her strength this weekend. I love and appreciate her so much. Eric's Dad and Kathy flew down from Logan, again a great strength and support in our lives. Thanks to all the family and friends from here in AZ that took time out of their busy schedules also, we are such a blessed family, thanks again to all of you.

Then of course we had to have a weekend of celebrating. Parties, parties and more parties. At one point I counted and there were at least 50 teenagers through out the yard and house. I think the kids had a great time. It was funny at about 11 o'clock Mitch and Morgan had disappeared and I had a house of kids that I had no clue who they were. Congratulations to all the 2009 graduates.

Ok, I can never decide if I should post tons of pics or do the slide show but a proud Mom takes too many pics.
As for the cruise it was amazing and beautiful. I picked just a handful of my favorite pictures. If you wanna see more Eric made an amazing slide show. It was an amazing vacation but it sure seems like it was forever ago not just two weeks. Enjoy...
