It's over!

School is finally out for the summer! I love my kids at school, but man, my brain and body needed a break! Saturday was graduation. It turned out great! With the exception of the music volume when the kids walked in, the sound was the best it has ever been. You could actually hear and understand what the speakers were saying. I've said at the end of the year each of the last 3 years that I'm not going to do senior sponsor anymore...I swear I mean it every year too. Something always ends up pulling me back into it.  I really do enjoy it but it is so mentally demanding, especially at the end of the year. I just don't know that I want that added stress to my life at this point. We shall see.

So Saturday was graduation, Sunday was a bandage change and my cousin's graduation party. Still hard to believe that the girl that was once the apple of my eye (before my own kids) has graduated high school, will be 19 next month, and start college in August. Seriously, where does the time go? Yesterday all I did was stay at home, do a little housework, I actually cooked for like the first time in, well, let's not go there, and really just laid low. I'm not opposed to doing that again today.

I've already promised Makenna basically the moon this summer. :-) I want to try and do fun things during the week but also stay at home some and just rest and relax. I also want to spend a little time on her school work to get her ready for the 1st grade! And, I know I'm going to regret saying this, but I really am going to try and work on losing some weight. UGH! I also need to reorganize the basement some what to make room to house extra bandaging supplies and go through the kids toys. Oh basement, I will conquer you. Oh yeah, and I'll probably do some school work. There really shouldn't be all that much to change from last year, which is a good thing. And I have to mention the fact that I had between 90% and 92% (depending on which category you look at) that passed the Algebra 1 ECA! For those of you that don't know what that means, it is a test that kids have to pass at some point while they are in high school or they don't graduate. The next closest teacher to me was 50%. Not bragging or anything...  :-)

Here are a few pics from the last week or so.
