My son, the graduate

My son, the graduate(of ELE)
The family...with the principal standing behind us...

I still don't understand why they have a graduation for fifth-grade. Oh, they call it a recognition ceremony, but you know what that means. It was very sweet to see all the kids in their fancy clothes and sad to know they are no longer in elementary school. The big, bad world of middle school is upon us. In other news, vacation was nice, more on that later. The kids are in day camp this week, so I've got loads of alone time. Just me and the laundry. Which I must go do now.

Way too long

The new patio. And it wasn't installed by me!

Yes, it's been a while. I've been crazy busy, and truthfully, don't have time to write this now. Yet, here I am.

The crocheted bunny. hideous, in my opinion. I don't think the pictured one in the mag was made with the same directions given. The head is way too large and I'm not showing it. ick.

I'm working on a hat and squares for an afghan. The knitted pillow-to-be is still on the needles.

And we're off to Maine in 2days for vacation.

My son is now a middle-schooler.

I'm feeling old and stressed that I have so much to do!

well, hopefully this will get rectified when we are on vacation.....
