Luke was very touched that so many family members made the trip to Odessa for his graduation. The week before he said several times, "You mean ALL of the cousins are coming?"

What a feat - saving 19 seats at Ratliff Stadium!
On the field waiting for Pomp and Circumstance to begin! Pretty neat that both of Luke's grandmothers could join us in front of the stage!

Exciting to see Luke head up on to the stage with the other Top Ten students.

Recognized as Valedictorian!
Luke leads the graduates in moving their tassels! A surprise to us that he was doing this!
Diploma time!
Sneaking down on to the field for some family photos!
