The Day Is Here

Elle at grad party

Tomorrow is Elle's graduation ceremony! Wow!  Time has flown! We had her party last Saturday.  We had a very good turn out!  Elle has 77 thank you cards to write!  I made way too much pasta salad and we had way too much meat and fruit, but oh well, no one went hungry!  We had smoked pork loin that was delicious! Everyone loved the meat and the cake.

Elle has chosen to attend Northwestern College in Orange City, Iowa.  I went with her to college orientation day on Thursday.  It's a great college and perfect for her!  It is a private Christian college.

Most of my stress is gone now that Elle's party is over and I have accepted reality.  I was so stressed out that I was grinding my teeth and had such severe TMJ that I had to go to physical therapy.  My jaw was so sore that I couldn't open my mouth all the way without it hurting terribly.

I will post the graduation ceremony photos soon. There will be tears tomorrow!
