Congratulations Ellie!

Last weekend we headed down to Rogersville to celebrate Ellie's high school graduation.  We began the festivities with an open house on Saturday night.  It was nice to hang out with family and see one of John's cousins and aunt that we do not get to see that often.  The kids had fun just playing in the backyard and hanging out with their cousins.  Sunday morning we got together for an early lunch at Lambert's and ate way too much food.  It is hard to say no to the delicious rolls and fried potatoes.  
Ellie's actual graduation ceremony was not until Sunday evening so we did not attend.  With a three hour drive back to Columbia and two kids that needed to be in bed since they had school in the morning, it just did not seem wise.  We are so proud of Ellie and excited for all the opportunities that college brings.
