Gabby's 8th grade graduation

It is official, Gabby has made it through middle school and is now a Freshman:( My gosh have I gotten OLD. I knew that it would happen some day, but I never thought that it would come this fast.

Friday June 12, 2009 we attended the graduation celebration. Before the ceremony the kids were invited to have dinner with their teachers and the school staff, I thought this was cool. We never got to do it. And then the parents were invited to dessert and the celebration. At the celebration the principal spoke about what a good group of kids this was, and how they are getting ready to start a new chapter in their lives. The class chose the civics teacher to speak. She did a wonderful job speaking about the kids, I can see why they all like her. She had a story to tell about every child and she spoke from the heart, so you know that she really cares about them. And then they had a teacher sing to them for the first time every. Of course there was a slide show of the baby to now pictures, and that was pretty much it but we had a good time. I am glad that Gabby has chosen this school and I hope that she continues to want to go!

Hair Time

Well I was going through my computer organizing my photos when I came across these. I knew that I had to put them up so we could look back on them and laugh remembering what a good time we had together doing girl stuff.

I am so happy that you have come home for a visit. You have no idea how you had made my week showing up like that. As you have read from the post before I was having an awful week, not knowing what to do and you showing up was a dream. With everything that you have had to do this year, I know that I can make it through this uncertain time. Thank you!

Anyway here is a good laugh and we will get to have some more really soon when we are all doing hair again!

SAD DAY

Well I went to work on Monday and I got a call that we were having a meeting with the owners of the store. They had called us all in to let us know that they sold the store and lube center. Good news is that Ron McIntyre (Super 1) is the new owner. So now we are in the process of waiting to see if we get to keep our jobs and what our new schedule will look like. I do know that the store will now be open 24 hrs a day 7 days a week. So please put me in your prayers that I will be safe and that I will not have to spend a lot of nights and weekends away from my family. I think that we are already going to loose a couple of employees with the change.

Other than this Kassi is starting up another year of STING for the same wonderful coach Crabb. And we have 6 players from last years team! YEH!! Gabby is graduating from the 8th grade on Friday, I will post pictures when I have them. The garden is coming in wonderfully, hopefully we have some veggies when you come to town. By the way when will you be here, for how long, and has any more been said about camping?
