Today Alexa graduated from the Calgary Girls School where she has attended since grade 6. It was somewhat bittersweet to say goodbye to CGS. Alexa has loved her years at the school but she is glad to be moving on to a new school, with new adventures and of course with BOYS! She shed many tears today and is so sad to say goodbye to her friends but she said she has so many great memories and she wouldn't change her decision to stay at CGS for her Gr. 9 year. Her favorite quote for the day was "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened"
This is Alexa and her good friend Zahara with Alexa's teacher, Mr. Fisher

Ready to go to the first grad party the night before graduation.
Ready to go to grad party #2. Alexa and 18 of her friends are going out to dinner at a restaurant and then a limo is picking them up to drive around town for an hour and then they are going back to Zahara's house for hotubbing and a sleepover. Notice the ankle brace... she got the cast removed a few days before her grad, she was so happy about that. She has to use crutches but we let her go without them for today only.
