Our 2008 Graduate: Katrina Joy Cummings

Sarah & Anna with their younger "little" sis.
The Cummings Clan at Kat's graduation

Kat & Casady, the oldest & youngest in our house.
Katrina was Senior class president, and did a wonderful job in her speech. She has won awards and went to State Contest in speech, so expected it to go well.
Walking across stage, and shaking hands with the schoolboard President. I realize I put these photos in reverse order. Oh well, maybe I'll do better next time.

Stair sledding

Last December we tried something at mom and dad's. The grandkids had a blast, the adults too. Can you believe the grandparents? Much to the delight of the grandchildren, Grandma and Grandpa tried sliding once themselves!
