Courtney and I went to the Okmulgee County homeschool co-op's graduation yesterday afternoon. It was good to be at First Baptist-Okmulgee again, because it was a large part of my social life growing up. The graduates this year were Little Jessica, Lani, two of the older Reeves kids and someone else. The pastor's house was flooded, so there wasn't a sermon, as is usually the case with homeschool graduations. Other than that, it was about as endearingly awkward an experience as expected. We talked for a bit with Mrs. Lee, and said hi to Mrs. Boland, but Mrs. Wright was too busy to say hello to. So we slipped out of the reception fairly quickly.
Courtney said it was weird, knowing that she'll be graduating in two three weeks, and that she could have been on the stage with them. I didn't expect to see anyone that I knew well, since we're all pretty scattered now - Cody and his family are in OKC, so is Mariah, Annette is in NYC, don't know about anyone else, since I've pretty much lost track of everyone. Still, it was one of those things that it felt like you're supposed to go to, because it's about as close to a five-year reunion as is possible for homeschoolers.
Amanda's daughter Maya had her second birthday yesterday. Talked some with Dylan and Sara after church this morning, mostly trading finals prep plans, and another topic was her and Josh's wedding coming up in June.
