Wow... I am officially OLD!

Heather is getting married October 17th, and that makes me officially OLD! I can't hardly believe that I have a child old enough to be getting married! But, she is happy and Tim is a great guy, so it's all good! I am so excited for her, and I love her so much! My little girl is grown up... it's crazy! You'll have to check out Heathers blog for the engagement details!

Life goes by too fast....

Well, we made it through May and it's already half way through June. It's been a while since I have updated. May was a whirlwind of activities, events and business at work...wedding after wedding after wedding, Heather coming home from Ohio, Marchele graduating from High School, football camp for Clyde, etc.

At work, we completed 28 weddings during the month of May, did flowers for 3 big proms, decorated for 2 high school graduations, 1 high school baccularete, along with the day to day stuff like funerals, birthdays, teacher appreciation gifts, dance recital bouquets, new babies, numerous consultations for the upcoming months...we already have weddings booked out a year, for next May. August and September look to be nearly as busy as May. That is both good and bad for me, but mostly good I guess.

Heather is home from Ohio, and getting settled back into a routine---kinda....taking the CNA class (again, to re certify and actually get her license this time), and looking for a job. In the meantime she is spending a lot of time with Tim and making up for the monthes she was away from her best friends Jaclyn & Kylee!

Marchele graduated from High School with high honors and wore 6 honor cords! The last couple weeks of May were busy and fun for her with seminary graduation, bacculareate, senior banquet, senior sluff, scholarship assemblies, completing the yearbook (she was one of the yearbook editors) and of course the all night party on graduation night! Being the wonderful( read sucker) mom that I am, I volunteered to do decorations and clean up for the all night party in between the 8 weddings we had in 4 days... I don't think I sleept for 10 hours all week... seriously!

Jason had spring league basketball games all through may, completed the swim instructors course, bought a cute little red scooter, worked as a lifegaurd and attended footballl camp. Somehow he fit in a couple of lawn mowing jobs, and a couple days of snowboarding as well.

Bryan has been working diligently on rebuilding a car for Marchele...we bought it for a bargin, but it came with a lot of work...actually a bit more than he anticipated, but he claims it will be like a new car by the time Marchele actually takes the wheel. It passed the state saftey inspection, but it has not yet met Bryans saftey and reliability standards yet. The emissions test was giving him problems for a while, but now it has passed that too, so I have decided that he secretly just likes working on it. Anyway, Marchele should have her new wheels in the next week or so! I guess yardwork will have to bee his new hobby for the summer!

Pictures will be following soon!
