Graduation Party

Today, we had a graduation party for Jessi. It was supposed to be a pool party, but the weather had other ideas. We had 30 people and it got fairly loud but it sure was fun! Some of my aunts came that I haven't seen in a while and that made it extra special. Jessi said I did too much, but I think she was pleased.

The graduation cap pop idea came from Bakerella. They really turned out cute. At first, nobody would eat them because they were so cute. Funny.

I made the cake and as soon as I had finished decorating it, Frank messed up a corner. No worries. A little icing and its all good. I wasn't even upset (and for me - I thought that was real progress). All fixed and ready to go in the fridge - oops - the fridge door started closing on me - I messed up the very same corner - worse than before. I'm out of the plain icing - all I have left is a little bit of black and red. This time there were tears - but only about 3 or 4 (still progress on the uptight scale if you ask me). I repaired as well as I could and got that sucker in the fridge!




Jessi and Blake graduated from UGA. Billy graduated with his masters from North Georgia. All on the same day.

Graduation

Our baby graduated from UGA on Saturday. We are so proud of her! She graduated Cum Laude with a degree in finance from the Terry Business College - with honors I might add. Did I mention that we're real proud? ;)

With no more children in school, we are now entering a new phase in our family. I think I'm feeling a bit nostalgic right now. I didn't cry at graduation and I'm not exactly sad...yeah, I think nostalgic is the right word. I definitely feel blessed.

Jessaroo - way to go!!!!!!!!!!

Lizards and Graduation Cookies

Frank called, "Nancy, you gotta come out here and see this!" I was amazed at how close the lizard allowed me to get!


Yesterday we went to the Edwards' for a graduation party for Blake. Here's the cookies I made for that. Blake and Jessi pitched in Friday night to get them finished.
