"Hi my name is Katie Chittick and I've been a Creative Memories Consultant for almost 21 years and I'm going to talk to you a little bit about doing some graduation pages for whatever graduation might be, elementary school, junior high, high school, college. This happens to be a high school graduation and they're included obviously the large picture, the senior picture and the events that occurred during the graduation and also you want to include events leading up to the graduation like maybe senior awards night, that kind of thing. And include your school colors, there are lots of paper options with which to do that. And so just a very fun thing to do. College board test, that would be a fun thing to include for your graduation and then grad night as well. So lots of fun things that you can do to celebrate a graduation. One of the things that I did for my son's graduation album was I decided that I would like to do a senior album for him and so we covered a variety of things. We started with his 18th birthday and I put in baby pictures. We continued when we went to a Dodger game, his first Dodger game was included there as well. We, when I got to pictures of his pets, we included pictures from when the puppies came to us on an airplane. My son has played in a band since he was in third grade so when the high school band had their first concert I put in pictures of band events from previous years. On this one he had played lots of sports and when he was a senior he ran cross country and I put in pictures starting with tee ball. So I just wanted to cover special highlights throughout his life. When we started getting graduation announcements, I wanted to put in pictures of his friends as well so I did the very last band concert of high school and then when, there we go, I'll go to the right page, when the announcements started arriving I would put in pictures of my son with that person when they were younger and with each one that came I would put in the announcement, the senior picture and then again pictures from growing up with those people, had the actual graduation itself and then included pictures from his previous graduations from sixth grade. And these three boys have been friends since they were two and so we had them, he and his mom, Micheal's mom and I had them pose in the same pose that we had taken when they were in second grade. Then we had family pictures, we had the pictures that were in his senior ad in the yearbook and his awards. So instead of having just the graduation, I wanted to include everything about his senior year for him to have and take this book off to college. So have a great time with your graduation pictures."
