Memorial Day--Picture heavy

We had a Memorial Day barbecue with the Griffins and Phairs and Trevor and Julie and Ashley.

Cooling Off

It was a hot day last Monday when we went to the park, so afterwards we had otter pops with the Phairs.

Gone

Well, we got up EXTREMELY early today and took Sydney to the surgical center and she had her tooth removed. The doctor and nurses said she was really good until she woke up from the anesthesia and then she was MAD! She screamed at us all the way home and it continued until about half an hour ago. Now, she's just laying on our bed, snuggling with Charles. What a trooper.

Back

I always get nervous about blogging while we are out of town. But, we're back from our ten day trip to Nebraska. We went to two graduations, celebrated Mother's Day, went apartment searching in Lincoln, attended a few concerts and took a trip to the zoo. It was a nice break and I will post our pictures and more in the next few days.

Chelsea's Graduation

We went to Chelsea's high school graduation on the last day we were in Nebraska.



Singing in the choir for the last time.



Mr Rohlfs, super Administrator.



Getting her diploma.





Congratulations Chelsea!

Party!

We threw a little graduation dinner for Chelsea. Here are some candy graduation caps I made. Sadly, they started to fall apart during dinner.



Decorations for her dorm room this summer.



Mmm...cake.



The graduate. We tried to surprise her, but she wouldn't cooperate.

Baccalaureate

I went to Chelsea's baccalaureate on Thursday night. It was just the way a baccalaureate should be, short and sweet.



The best part was hearing West High Singers sing. Eight years ago, I wore those robes.







Chelsea and Jasmine.



Chelsea and Lauren.



With her friends, and someone's mom's head.

Henry Doorly Zoo

We went with my mom and Chelsea to visit the zoo while we were in Nebraska. I posted the pictures I took in three separate posts, sorted by the building they were taken in.
