Last Week of School *whew*

Tuesday, May 22, 2012

I know some of you probably think I've fallen off the face of the earth!  Not quite, *but* it has been a ridiculously busy last two weeks of school.  This past weekend, we took Shelley and her friends to the lake for an end of the school year celebration.  Shelley's friends are delightful!  I am very proud of Shelley's choices in friends.

I am so sorry that I have not visited any of your blogs this past week.  Things are so out of hand around here that we did not even have milk in the house for tea this morning!  I will try to write some posts and visit y'all as soon as I can.

Until next time...

Blessings!

  1. Get thee to the market to buy milk. Pronto. Enjoy your breather too. Any one of us would trade to be on the lake right now.

  2. What a great photo of Shelley and her friends! I feel what you're feeling these days. Family in town, school ending, tons of volunteer responsibilities. I'll get back to blogging soon. Great to catch up on your lovely family quickly though!

  10. I remember those days of a house full of kids. keeping them entertained and enough food around was a full time job. Looks like the girls were having a blast! I'm sure you enjoyed seeing how happy Shelly and her friends were. Summertime fun, nothing like it………

  13. Oh, horrors! I hate to run out of milk for my tea. I even keep a box of UHT milk on the shelf for just such emergencies. (you don't want to cross me until I've had at least half a pot of tea)
    Your daughter is out early. The children here go until the last part of June.
    They are such cute girls. What a joy to see those fresh young faces reflect so much joy.

    I understand the chaos you're going through, believe me. We still have a month of school left & the activities/sports have been constant!

    Don't worry about us, take care & enjoy!

  20. So *that's* where you've been!! I was wondering why it's been a bit quiet!! This looks like such a fun weekend. I'm so looking forward to having older daughters - although I'm still trying to enjoy every minute of the little years too!!

    I'm so pleased you had such a great time!

    I have had to delete my blog, the virus our computer contracted from a blog I visited and the fact my eye sight has worsened more quickly than anticipated has made my exit quicker than I planned, I want to thankyou for your friendship and kind words,
