Daniel Graduates


On Thursday, May 28th, at 8PM, Daniel had his graduation ceremony at the Merriweather Post Pavillion.

























Here he is receiving his diploma from his principal.















As a member of the National Honors Society, he got to wear this cool white collar.














Daniel sang in the Madrigals, although he wasn't able to play in the band and march down the aisle at the same time. Julia played 'Pomp and Circumstance' with the band for him and the other seniors.



Only Dave, Andrea and I were there to congratulate him, as Julia had to return on the school bus.




















































At home, we had a steak dinner earlier, and when we got back at about 10:30 we had a little party for Daniel.




















Here is the quilt I made for Daniel. I began on it 2 years ago, and fortunately finished in plenty of time. One of the fabrics has musical notation as a reminder of the seven music groups he performed in while in high school.














It's possible that the quilt was overshadowed, though, when he was surprised to receive an i-pod Touch.

We are incredibly proud of all of Daniel's accomplishments and his tenacity to achieve accademically as well as in sports and music.

The quilt is beautiful! It will always matter more than the I-Touch! And happy anniversary recently! We just celebrated our 25th as well.
