Proud Moment!

Well he did it! Computer Geek graduated Friday! I was extremely proud of him. After graduation, we had a little "Graduation Celebration". Computer Geek received tons of cards. Big D and I surprised Computer Geek with a laptop. He had put one in lay-away in hopes to receive enough graduation money to pay for it. But of course, we got it out of lay-away! I believe he was in shock! Then after the Graduation Celebration, we went to the High School for the Project Graduation party. They had all kinds of fun things for the kids to do and enough food to feed an army or two. Football Star ended up with a bloody nose and a black eye. He was playing in the blow-up boxing ring with one of Computer Geeks buddies and they bumped heads. Ouch! But it didn't bleed long and it wasn't broken. PTL! From 1am to about 3am, I didn't think I was going to be able to make it all night. But I pressed on. Then about 4am, they had all the kids line up and they received their envelope with money ($60) and 2006 t-shirt. Then we all went into the Auditorium for the prize drawings. Now let me tell you that was so fun. They had 3 doors. When they called your name you had to chose what door you wanted. It was so fun to hear the kids yell, "door 1, no door 3" etc.
Computer Geek won a microwave (which he needed badly!) and he won one of the grand prizes a laptop. Yep, I said a laptop! Ugh! If we had NOT bought him one for graduation, he probably would have never won one! LOL! But one of his friends, is going to buy it.

Sunday we went shopping with some of his money. He bought a printer, ink, printer paper, wireless mouse, and a laptop lap table. So he is on his way to getting ready for college.

Until next time.....

God Bless~
