Rachel is the first of Becky and John O'Brien's grandchildren to graduate from high school. We weren't all able to make it to her graduation ceremony, so we planned a picnic party as a way for us to celebrate. We met at a beautiful park in Fredericksburg and had just the best weather. Below is a picture of the bright and beautiful Rachel, who will be attending JMU in the fall.
(Yay!! We're thrilled that she'll be joining us in Harrisonburg!!)
After a cook-out and lots of sweets we took a short hike to this stream. There were lots of rocks to throw and crayfish to find.
Max loved, loved, loved throwing rocks like his big brothers and cousins.
The 5 grandkids!
I just wish John was still alive to see his grandchildren playing together in the stream, celebrating the graduation of Rachel- the little girl who stole all our hearts when we met her 17 years ago.
