Graduation Time

School is now over for the year and graduation season is upon us. Within one week I will have attended four graduation parties in three different states. It started last Saturday with a graduation party for Rhoda who graduated from nursing school. The next one was Joseph who graduated from high school in Virginia, Last night was graduation at Terre Hill. I think, tonight the one for a nursing student in Maryland is the last one.

One of the last events at the end of the year was the THMH/FMH softball games at Gap Park.

Kayla rounds third base on her way to making a home run.



Rhoda finished her BSN and threw a party for herself.
Immediately after te softball game on Wednesday, I left for Virginia to attend the graduation party for Joseph. The Showalters didn't know I was coming. I had told them just the week before that there was no way I could make it because I was giving finals on Wednesday morning and had the softball game in the afternoon. On Monday I started reconsidering; by Tuesday I had decided I could go. The party was on the front lawn with about 100 people there until a rain shower came through the valley and we all headed indoors. It was wall-to-wall people for the rest of the party. I spent the night with Sharon and then went back to Showalters to help Sarah clean up while we visited.
