Day 151, Year 3 (881)


 Pride and Joy!

Today our family celebrated our youngest's college graduation.  She choose not to "walk" but did get herself a cap and gown so we could take pictures and make it look official.  Afterwards the entire family headed to Annie's for burgers and shakes.  

I am so very proud of this young woman.  She worked hard to keep it all together and graduate in 4 years.  

The picture below is her showing off her outfit which of course is the Gopher maroon and gold.  I see my mom in all of my kids but in this picture Keia reminded so very much of her. 

Now on to the next chapter of her life. I love her more than she will ever think I do.  (:

Not in this photo is the body wash I made.  Super rich and its wonderful smell is peppermint and sweet orange. The...

Last week Miss Mara had a sleepover at Mimi's house.  She wanted to make the biggest EVER pile of leaves.  This is the end result.  And I do believe someone is hiding in that VERY large pile of leaves. Love this little girl child with all that I am.
