8th Grade Promotion

Kayla promoted last night. They had a big promotion ceremony at Deer Valley High School on the football field. Luckily, it wasn't nearly as hot as Anna's last year, but it was just as long. Over 400 kids, 2 songs by the chorus and about 10 people making speeches...took forever! I don't really understand making a big deal out of finishing 8th grade, but it's apparently a big deal out here. There were people saving seats for 50+ people and some of the girls were dressed like they were going to prom. I had to make Kayla go and Anna and I were her only guests. Ryan had to work and I told the rest of the family to stay home. They better not miss high school and college graduation though! Here are some pics from the night.

Can't believe she is going to be in high school! She still looks like a baby!


Kayla and her friend Taneal. They were TA's together this year in the office.
