Today was Angela’s grade 12 graduation. It started with a Graduation Mass at the church in the morning, followed by a luncheon for the grads and then the ceremony in the evening. Hard to believe it has been 4 years since Angela started Grade 9.

We had a few issues trying to figure out which way the sash went, we guessed wrong., but if I didn’t point it out, would you know? We’ll have to do a redo.

The graduation was at the Hersey Centre.

Angela had to pose for Dylan’s Mom as well.

In total there were 409 graduates present to receive their diplomas, over half of them were Ontario Scholars. This was also the 25th Commencement Ceremony for Our Lady of Mt Carmel.

Angela can’t pick her family…

…but she can pick their noses.

Congratulations Angela, a job well done! You have made Mom and I very proud of all your accomplishments and good luck at McMaster in the fall.
