Once again, I apologize for my tardiness in keeping you updated. It has been a whirlwind couple of weeks. I finished my first summer class, started the second one, went for a [way to fast] weekend trip to NWA, attended the graduations of two very special young men...all while keeping up my regular work schedule and getting sick (not sure whether it is allergies or a cold).
Here are some picture highlights...
Logan's graduation...
I love this boy. Logan - it is such a privilege to be a part of your life!
Visiting my dear friend Kelly and meeting her new baby (Zane) for the first time...(I think he likes his aunt Havah
)
My sweet brother Sam's graduation - I am SO PROUD of this boy!
With mom and dad...
Waiting for the ceremony to start - Me, Abe, Jannah, Dad and Mom.
Sam and Jannah - they are super close and I love watching them together...
Abe and I - LOVE that our eyes are the same color. He is such a handsome boy.
Sammy and I. I love this boy. He makes me laugh so hard and has such a sweet spirit. I am so proud of the person that he is and is becoming. It is a privilege to be his big sister.
Let's see...let's see...what else? I am becoming a master at pruning rose bushes - today at work I did approximately 500 bushes...it took four and a half hours, but it was so fun! [no seriously - I really did enjoyed it]. School is going well - I am currently in a 'Health and Wellness' class. It is keeping me busy, but is pretty interesting. I know that I complain about school quite a bit, but really, I really do like it. This past week we read/discussed the effects of stress on your health...I took the survey where you add up the points for significant life events over the last eyar as a way to gauge your risk level for health problems related to stress. If you are over 300, you are considered high risk... Guess what my score was? 544. Yep. Perhaps that could be contributing to thee fact that currently my head feels like it is going to explode? hmmmmm. Okay - I should probably be doing something productive now. Or maybe going to sleep....
Okay - then that is all for now. Later!

Oh, please don't let your head explode. It's only temporary. Once school is done there will be time to chill. Yeah for you getting the schooling done. It is worth it. Matt and I are at the top of the stress chart, too. Married, new job #1, moved, moved again, became parents, new job #2, new computer system at work, parenting an active 19 month old who begins every sentence with "no". Our motto is "Stressed spelled backwards is dessert!" Every night after Mieke goes to bed we have dessert together.
lovely. Also, amazing that your wing-span can get 5+ people in a shot. Impressive.
I love all the pictures! You are one busy lady.
Also, the tanning? Is totally working out for you
And what did your health and wellness class recommend for Miss 544? Your tanning lessons ARE working out. You look marvelous.
Love the pictures! It is quite one thing to know one is stressed and another entirely to see it in black and white, is it not? I'm with LG. Any available stress relief accompany that test? Love you.
I complain about school...I really need to stop because my life pales in comparison to yours! The stress doesn't show in any of these pictures though. I love the last picture of you with Sam...gorgeous!
500 rose bushes!! Wowo! I would have given up at 5 or so...Maybe 10 if I was really in a gardening mood:)
fantastic pictures! you look gorgeous. i like your hair like this.
those containers are baby food jars--the parents' choice ones. they are way better than the gerber glass or plastic ones. i still buy a lot of baby food b/c it's easier to send in diaper bags...but that works out well when i need a place to put my hippie homemade stuff:-p it was upsetting MY OCD that i ran out and had to use a gerber one and regular little containers!
