Sunday Grains of Gratitude.......

Another week down - and a super, crazy, busy, I can't believe I survived it one, at that!!! The last week of school is always soooo crazy - but this year it seems like things have been even more crazy than usual! But, we all made it through, with smiles even, and lots and lots of memories!This week I'm grateful.....
That Big K graduated!!!! It was kind of bittersweet though.... I am so excited that she is growing up and spreading her wings, but just a little sad that she will be leaving the nest, at the same time. My baby graduated from HS - how can time have gone so fast that she could be this old and so accomplished???? She graduated with high honors and did the most amazing job on her Salutatorian speech :) She is one amazing girl and I'm so grateful I have the chance to be her mom :)











that Grandma and Grandpa came all the way from Canada to celebrate with us. Thanks so much for making the trek, mom and dad, especially with all the pain you are both having. It means the world to us that you would come and be a part of this special day with us!


The Senior class officers, Salutatorians and Valedictorian :)


The choir - Big K has been in choir all 3 years of HS and this was her last song with them.....


On the big ol' jumbotron thingie :)


The speech!!!


Getting her diploma! It's official - she's a highschool graduate!





Thanks Jenn, M and M for coming to celebrate with us!


Oma was there too!


and Grandpa D :)


with the whole Fam!!!


It will be C's turn next year!!!



That the neighbors are so great and wonderful and nice to share their pool with us! Brady thinks it is the greatest thing EVER!!! He loves the slide and the hot tub the mostest!!!

















That we got to see all the kids at the dance festival :) Although I missed Little K's dance - good thing we got it on video!!!! Do that funky Dance!!!!




Kindergarten did the Hokei Lau.....








6th grade did some 50's swing dance......




that I could go to Big K's scholarship celebration. Well - the celebration wasn't that big of a deal, but I am grateful for the hard work Big K put in to earn several different scholarships. She is a great student!


that I could go to all of C's tournament games :) Since they went to the finals - it meant a lot of driving and a lot of soccer - but it was GREAT - especially when they beat the number one team in their division for the championship!!!!! WTG C!!!!!









that we could go to the zoo with Oma!!!!














that H graduated from 6th grade and we could go to his graduation :) When they put all these things during the day, it makes it kind of tricky to be able to get dads there. I'm so grateful that the hubs has a fairly flexible job that he can attend these events too!

that life is so good!

What are YOU grateful for today?????
