It must be Day to Disparage Newspapers (What are they?)

From one of my favorite new comics, Scenes from a Multiverse:

Our honors grad

For once, we got pictures posted pretty quickly. Here are scenes from Katie’s Eastview High School graduation tonight, at which I was able to hand her her diploma. I’m still coming down off the high. After I handed her the diploma, we fist bumped, then hugged. I held it together better than I expected — no real tears. Katie helped by making funny faces at me during the ceremony from her seat in the audience.

The rest of the photos are included in the slideshow below. Or click here to go to our Flickr feed and look at all of the sets.

Class of 2010

Tonight is Katie’s big night, graduating with the Class of 2010 at Eastview High School! I can’t believe this day is here already. We’ll be going out to dinner with my dad and stepmom, then over to the ceremony. I get to hand Katie her diploma and speak on behalf of the School Board at the ceremony. I am very honored. Laurie has spent the past 36 hours at the school decorating for the all-night senior party. We haven’t seen much of her these past couple of days. She designed all of the signs and some of the cooler decorations you’ll see in the slideshow below. [SPOILER ALERT: SENIORS, DO NOT LOOK AT THESE PHOTOS UNTIL AFTER THE PARTY]

If you can’t attend the ceremony tonight (rain is chasing us indoors, so there is limited seating), you can watch it live here at 7 p.m. Central Time.

Jesse with her Presidential Award

Jesse received the Presidential Academic Award at Falcon Ridge Middle School on June 3. She also performed before the ceremony with the percussion ensemble. More pictures in the Flickr slideshow below.

Here are some photos of Katie, Breanna, Kayla and Brett as they get ready to head to the 2010 Eastview High School prom at the International Market Square in Minneapolis on May 29.
