yeah.

Graduation was this past Friday. So proud of the many friends of mine that graduated!!

Em and I

Katie and I

Janessa graduated too. Which is scary, cuz that means its my turn next year!

David got stuck in a tree on Monday. He is just too cute.

My kiddos played together so nicely! Proud babysitter moment. :) 

Eleven days until we leave for NYC, anybody else freaking out? No? Just me, okay. I am so excited though. You can read all about our trip on our team blog. Please be in prayer for us as we prepare and when we go.



 

Also, TWENTY days until we leave for Minnesota for Kortney and Mat's wedding. I am pretty sure that no one is more excited that me(except maybe Kortney and Mat) I can't wait to see all of my cousins again!

 

Yesterday I was at Sonic with some friends and I heard this song by Megan & Liz. I was so excited! Total fangirl.

 

Okay, that's it. I love you all.

The end.

Heidi and I at her dad's wedding!


Call me strange but I like the muddy, slush snow..

Jillaina's letter to Santa and his response.

 

My Christmas shoes!!




"I'm a pirate!"





Best. Babysitter. Ever.


I love the sky too much.

My whole life for those two weeks that I was sick.. books, homework, crocheting, and tv series.

I dunno..

*I have NO idea how long this has been sitting in my drafts, it has to have been a couple of months... sorry that it never posted! But throwbacks are always fun too! :)

32 days.

 

Hi.

That's how long until I will be in New York City for the very first time. Back in February our trip to Ukraine had to be canceled due to unrest in the country.  But we are all really excited for NYC! Partly nervous, but mostly excited. 

one of my favorite days in New York, visiting the half frozen lake.

Visiting Grandma's gravestone for the very first time..


Niagara tho...

And thennn, only 42 days until we go to Minnesota for Kortney and Mat's wedding. I can't wait to see all my New York family again! I've missed them so so SO much.. although two months isn't very long, it has felt like so much more!

The past months have been pretty crazy, with babysitting and preparations for the mission trip. I've also been looking at colleges, it is so weird that I am old enough to make a for sure decision for my future. There are so many different things that I could choose and I am only supposed to choose one? Choices, choices...How fun.

 Relaxing in OKC with some of my favorite kiddos.


"He thinks I'm his daddy! Silly kitty!"


No comment. ;)


Tuesday was Jillaina's 10th birthday, we had chicken and rice for dinner, and cake after with some of our older brothers and sisters. Heidi surprised me with a visit, I've missed her! It is weird not to see her very much anymore. Hopefully this summer we can hang out more!

"Kitties!!"

Easter at Jennaea and Ben's

 

Yay for cousins!

 

And grandmas and uncles!

 

Favorite photo from a couple weekends ago.

This is a public service announcement:
Sonic now has NERDS slushies. I recommend the grape with NERDS. You would think that adding to such a great flavor as grape would be superfluous, but believe me, it's not! They are way up there with cranberry limeades(lite ice, extra limes, and the occasional addition of lemons)

Hey... if anyone wants free kittens we've got seven.. but seriously. Come and get'em.

I love making birthday cards. :)

 

You know you needed to laugh..

I guess that's all.
Until next time.
Stay real folks.
