Busy Bees

Okay, so I don't know if anyone is actually reading this anymore, since I haven't gotten many comments lately, but I will continue to post anyway :)

First off, things have been NUTS around here. I feel like we have been going and going non-stop. Poor Will took a four hour nap today because he was so exhausted. We started off the week by getting together on Sunday and Monday nights with our friends, Kathy and Matt (see post below). Tuesday, we attended the Journalism banquet at Big Spring High--one of our best friends, Leland, is the journalism adviser and we like to support him when we can. He has an awesome award-winning newspaper and yearbook, and some of the coolest kids ever. The banquet is always a fun time. Plus, free food (yea for Al's barbecue!).

Last night, while Scott and Will were at church, I went to one of the retirement homes in Big Spring to visit a sweet little lady by the name of Frankie. We had so much fun talking that I totally lost track of time and didn't get home until 8:30! I am one of the "writers/contributors" for our congregation's ladies newsletter and I interviewed Frankie for June's issue. When I got home, I sat down to type up the interview and format the newsletter. Just as I was finishing at 1:00 am, Will woke up quite unhappy and we spent about an hour convincing him that he was okay and could return to his bed to sleep. It was a long night to say the least!

And tonight, Harmony and I met our friend Katie for dinner at Pizza Hut. Katie and her family are moving to San Angelo this weekend and we are so sad! :( But, it is a good move for their family so we are excited for them, too. And, yea!, San Angelo is on the way to Katy from Big Spring, so hopefully we will get to see them from time to time. Katie's son, Cash, is almost exactly one year older than Will, so it's been fun to watch him grow and see what to expect from Will in the next year. I will miss them dearly.

Tomorrow night we have 2 graduation ceremonies to attend--Coahoma High School (I just learned to day that the word "coahoma" is an Indian word for "signal") and Forsan High School (similarly, I learned today that "Forsan" means 4 sands or 4 pay loads of oil. Wow!). They start at 7:00 and 8:00 pm respectively. It will be a busy evening.

This weekend we are going to my brother's "I'm-done-with-high-school!" party in Katy. We're driving. Eight hours one way. We'll leave Saturday and return Monday. I love you, Kendall :)

And, of course, next week is the last week of school, so things at work have been quite busy. We are trying to get everything done and in order for next year. Aaa!

So, enough rambling, I suppose. Hopefully I will come up with something interesting to post sometime soon. Until then, I leave you with this movie quote. Whoever guesses correctly gets the virtual gold star! :)
