Kristin's Graduation - Seattle 2009

Woo hoo! Krisi is 18! Can you believe it? She graduated on Saturday June 13, from Auburn Mountainview High School in Auburn, Washington. Jeff and I are so proud of her accomplishments. She graduated with a "Cum Laude" award for a high GPA. This girl has done it all on her own, she hasn't had anybody naggin her to wake up and get to school, she did it on her own! She is a very smart 18 year old with ambitions and dreams. We love her so much! :) Congrats Krisi, we love you and are so proud of you, never stop dreaming and always reach for the stars.


That evening we took Kristin to the Space Needle for dinner - the appetizer we ordered was one of the best things we had ever eaten! Then Jeff and I requested the special orbitor desert for her. All in all it was a great night!


The next day my father and his fun neighbor, Aaron took us out on the boat in the Puget Sound. We saw star fish, jelly fish, and even seals! It was a great experience. Aaron drove us to the largest bridge north of the Golden Gate, I can't remember what it's called, even though I was told twice!! Thanks Ranae for the chocolate cake shots! (1 part Frangelica, 1 part Vodka, finish with a lemon slice!) It really tastes like chocolate cake - our new favorite!

We docked the boat and walked up to this nice restaurant for cocktails and appetizers and took a fun group picture outside of the restaurant. We had a great time!




Before we knew it, it was time to say goodbye! It's always so sad and a hard thing to do.
