cassidy

We spent the weekend in Kearney for our niece, Cassidy's high school graduation. She was one of two people selected out of 370+ kids to give a commencement speech and she totally nailed it. I can't believe how well she did, this was the first time I wasn't totally bored at a graduation (mine included). The thought of getting up in front of any amount of people to give any kind of speech makes my heart race and my face and chest flush. Cassidy sounded like she was having a conversation with an old friend. 

Eve managed to stay quiet enough during the first part of the ceremony so I was able to hear it, so I was very thankful for that. When it was time for the diplomas to be handed out, it was time for Eve to get out and run around. I just took her out in the hallway for about an hour and she had a good time making the rounds. 

Here are a couple pics from the weekend.
