Jons Graduation

Jon (big jon) Chloe and I went for a walk at Green Lake

and then Wegmans (I think) for lunch before getting geared up to go to Jons (little) graduation.

Some of the talks were good, but I found it a little funny how some of the speakers seemed to be under the impression that graduating from high school magically turns you into an "adult": boy are they in for a surprise! I was also a little amused by the abundance of grammatical errors in the Principals talk. Doctor, heal thyself! Ten minutes into the graduation I peeked over the girls shoulder in front of us to see her texting "Ugh, Nottingham graduation" to someone. There was a spirited rendition of The Chicken. My favorite part was watching a crooked smile spread across the drummers ( A graduating Senior) face as she laid down a thumpin' beat. All in all it seemed pretty well put together, and it was fun to see all of the excited families in the audience go crazy when their kids walked across the stage.

After waiting for the congratulations to end, we headed to Alto Cinqo, a nearby mexican restaurant
