Headline: Markee Graduates From Westlake


Yes!  Once again it was down to the wire and we were sure if she was really going to graduate until a week before the actual event.  How happy I was to have her text me these pictures after she finished her math packets!
Westlake students have this tradition of getting this GRADUATE "tattoo" stamped on their bodies and they wear them proudly as long as they last.  I had to go into the seminary building to bring Markee a paper the day that she got her stamp and made the mistake of saying, quite loudly, "I want to see your tattoo!"  The seminary receptionist glanced up in surprise and Markee was embarrassed and assured her that it was not a "real tattoo".
The big day went off without a hitch, except for trying to find Markee and Tamsyn after the graduation.  But it all ended happily ever after.  Here are some pictures of the big day:
I love that Tamsyn and Markee went to jr high and high school together and were able to graduated together!

Yeah, sometimes they like each other!

Even Daina made it out to graduation

Proud mom and dad!
The whole crew!

Not only did get get to go to school with one cousin; this lucky girl had two!  Kaila Donaldson, Kiera's daughter went to Westlake with Markee and Tamsyn too!
