8 June 2025

Our week started with a graduation party for Gibson and four friends: Jason, Ben, Kate and Cason. The party was the perfect kickoff for graduation week.

This is a photo of Gibson in his graduation regalia. His school awards cords to graduates. Gibson is wearing cords representing achievements in  academics, clubs, sports, and dual enrollment credits.

Graduation was held outside in the stadium. Adia's dad got there 2 hours early and saved great seats for his family and for us. Graduation started at 8 pm, by which time we weren't staring directly into the sun.

This is a photo of Gibson and Adia in the processional.

This is Gibson receiving his diploma.

And here they are all throwing their hats into the air. Surprisingly, most students get their hats back at the end of the night.

Here's Adia in the recessional. 

And here's Gibson.

We are enormously proud of Gibson and happy for his graduation!
