Show and Tell Friday ~ He's DONE!

The Big Teen finished his last subject today and is officially done with high school!! You just cannot imagine my excitement and relief! We made it!! He will be having a big graduation ceremony with many other homeschoolers from around the state on May 23 at the homeschool convention. However, I just had to do something to celebrate tonight! We dropped the big teen off at his fencing class and scurried off to the store to buy a cake and some balloons. I used to drive my poor dear husband crazy doing  things impromptu like this, but he is used to me now. When we got home, we decorated a little and waited for the big teen to come back home. When he came through the door, we yelled SURPRISE! Boy, did we get him! He never saw this little party coming.  



After cake and ice cream (another cheat on the special diet), we went outside to get even with that boy for all the complaining over school assignments have a silly string war.



Get him children!



CONGRATULATIONS, SON! We are proud of you.

Blessings, Dawn

    I love the silly string fight! I think mine would love that here too. I'll have to remember that one. (I should go tell one of my children as they would remember better than me.)


    Blessings
