Hi everyone!! My week is getting so much better. We have my 2 nieces visiting from Texas. They were here for their brother's wedding this past Sunday...we all had a wonderful time. We're going out to dinner tonight with everyone...it's so good to see them. After tonight, I think the rest of the week looks less crazy with maybe some sewing in there. I want to thank everyone for all your words of encouragement...you are all the best!

Here are a few pictures from Courtney's graduation. We are so proud of all her accomplishments...National Honor Society and several academic scholarships. She just came back from a 2 day orientation and has all her classes all set. She's excited, but I have a lump in my throat.

I think I can get back to regular blogging now, so I'll see you tomorrow.

Have a great day,
