Congratulations!!

She received the class medals for Spanish and Math.

In the middle of the ceremony, the graduates are to give their parents a

hug (in this case a hug and kiss) to thank them for all of their hard work
 as a homeschooling parents.

A few days later it was 

Party Time!

No matter how simple the party is, it still takes a lot

of planning and hard work.

We did some last minute food prep...

 Rudy grilled burgers, hot dogs, and ribs.

 Fixed up a drink station

(which later also became the make-your-own s'mores station)...

Decorated a greeting table...

Prepared a salsa and dessert bar (what a combination!!)...

Then we hosted many guests
(unfortunately we didn't get pictures of everyone)...

It was a good weekend full of family, friends,

and love as we celebrated Bethany finishing up one phase

of life and her moving along, with great anticipation, to the next.
