Commencement

Sawyer asked Melissa McMasters to Commencement. I must say, the kid's a nut! Here's the story:

 He made this great shirt :)! He put his hoodie on, and went to track practice. When the kids were stretching, we walked up to Melissa and gave her flowers and a sharpie. She asked what the sharpie was for, and he unzipped his hoodie, revealing the shirt. At the same time, his friend started his i-pod, and played the song, Check Yes Juliet. I think that's hilarious!

As goofy as he is, she still checked yes! He was pretty excited!

For their day date, they went indoor rock climbing. He did the same thing last year for his day date, and wants it to be a tradition. It's unique, and everyone seems to like it.

Here's the whole group: Kendra, Sam, Tyler, Rachel, Zakk, Christie, Dirk, Blair, Melissa, Sawyer.

Dirk, Sam, and Sawyer. Wow, who wouldn't want to go out with them ;)!

After rock climbing, they went and got Jamba Juice. Then, they dropped the girls off so everyone could get ready for the dance.

When they picked up the girls, they went and had pictures done, then went to dinner at Olive Garden. The dance was at the Red Lion Hotel, and afterwards they came back to our house and watched a movie. I know I say this all the time, but I'm so grateful for the awesome friends Sawyer has. I never worry about him getting into trouble, because he's always around such good kids.
