We did her first college day today and it was fun. My only problem is since she started her senior year it has been one thing after another. Lots of forking out money for class trip,class pics,caps and gowns and the list goes on and on!!I feel like we can't even enjoy her senior year.It's just way busy and expensive.

Yep, you need two savings accounts...one for sr year and one for college!
We just paid $2600 for dd sr trip...she is going to Germany in July for 2 weeks.
Then there has been the sr pictures, class ring, cap and gown, sr ads in the year book and fall sports program, announcements,prom, project celebration, application fees, college visits, and the $$$ just keeps rolling out the door.....
