Graduation Pictures...

I finally got around to uploading and resizing the girls pictures from their graduations last week, so... you'll find a ton plastured here! :)

Yesterday I walked/ran around the track 7 or 8 times... about 3.5 miles or so.. I was quite proud of myself and it felt really good. After I got home, D and I went on a short bike-ride (about 15min), then we came home- went walking/running around the neighborhood... then came BACK to the house, got the kiddos and did races in the street about 7 times and umm, I'm sure we looked like a family freak show, but we had fun :) After that, we all walked around the block (The cat came with us, too.. how funny is that? I've never had a cat who likes to go on family walks.... lol). We didn't get back home until after 10pm and the kids were ZONKED! :) So, hopefully today can be just as active... this bode needs to TONE! :) Anytime you're running and your flabby legs and bootey are still running AFTER you stop running, well... you know you need to run / walk a lot more often then you are (lol). :) :) :) My goal this summer is to really get in shape, so.. hopefully I can do it!

The girls have Holly over, playing Barbies.. so... they are downstairs playing. I'm getting ready to hop in the shower, then go clean out Darryl's dads car so I can take that back to him. Then, I think I'll go hit the track for a few miles before it starts raining again, then go tan, then come home and plop a fattening lasgona in the oven. :)

Addi has her kindergarden testing tommorow at school at 11am, so.... another $200 for her enrollment to CAL. UGH... we've spent over $1200 already in just re-enrollment and Addi's application fee, and now it will be another $200 just to get her in. It's insane....... (and) we still need to enroll/pay the application fee for CHELCEY- another $300! Man, it sure is expensive sending kids to private school, but EVER so worth it! I got Courtney's 5th grade celebration DVD that I'm going to try to upload a portion of it to youtube in hopes to share some of it :) I'll work on that tonight. I've never done it before, so... we'll see how I'll do :) LOL

Trying to decide if we're leaving for Missouri either Thursday or Friday, so... trying to work out the details.

Okay.. not a lot going on over this way, so.. I'll stop before I bore you! Just wanted to pop on and share some pictures :) Talk to ya soon...

Addi was sooo tierd from that day. She had a half day at school, I picked her and her sisters up at 11:45pm, then we went to the park with other CAL families.. then we went to buy shoes, then got lunch, then had a little down time before it was time to get ready and go BACK to the school at 3:30pm for her program. She was pooped... this was her about 10min. after we got in the car after graduation....

Here's Courtney's gradation. All the girls made a "pack' to wear the same dresses they all had bought for their "Manners Luncheon" and it was funny, because in the DVD that they played at graduation, they interviewed them the day of the Manners luncheons and ALL the girls were wearing the SAME dresses that day, except for one! :) It was funny!!!! :) AFter seeing these pictures now, I wish we *would* have bought her a new dress, but she wanted to wear this one since everyone else was being an "outfit repeater" :) LOL so, what can ya do? :)

The wedding was absoutely beautiful and watching the way that Emily and Josh looked at one another was priceless.... he waited a long time to find the right one, and by the look in each others eyes, you could def. tell SHE IS IT! :) I'm *so* happy for both of them.

AND... I'm getting ready to share wedding pictures in a bit :) so, expect me to email you the ones that I have and I will have prints made in the next few days of the one of Josh and Grandma.... :)
