Mr. D. asked Aleana not to be so tall beside him!!!

Some of the girls walking in.

Walking out with their Bibles.

The family watching their sister.

The above shots were from Mom's camara and these are from mine.

So starting from the beginning...

Auntie Michelle came over to do Aleana's hair.

So pretty!! It was really special that Michelle could be a part of the occasion.

With one of her many teachers and the one who gave her birth!!

We went to Grandma and Grandpa B's for pictures. Grandma was still in recovery mode from back surgery, but they still managed to come to most of the ceremony. She's a toughie!!!

With Grandpa B.

Group shot.

Aleana wanted Nadia to have a similar dress but I felt that would take an enourmous amount of time to make or find so instead Aleana was content with dressing her in a totu.

Walking in.

Seeing "You are my All in All".

Doing some public speaking with Nathan. Aleana's cousin Taylor had deja vu over this scene!!!

(ie: Tall girl, and shorter boy)

Having her cake.

Smirking about something.

Opening gifts at home later.

Cousin Jaxon.

We had a small gathering at our home afterwards.

It was an eventful evening and we are very thankful that Aleana did so well in grade seven!!

She certainly learned alot in the past year and has grown in alot of different ways.

We wish you all the best in high school Aleana!!!

Our father in heaven will bless you there and guide you in His ways - that is what He has promised to do. He is your All in All - Worthy is His Name!!

We love you very much.
