6 square feet of cookie..........

Well, we had the big family hooha at Jan's yesterday. It was so nice to have the family together. We were all there except Lindsay's crew. Jan and Paul have finished the landscaping around their pool in the backyard. It is awesome. Phil cooked the burgers (as usual). Leann brought strawberry shortcake. Yum. Clint and I took a cookie from Mrs. Field's. It was 24" X 36". We had them decorate it into 3 sections, one for the birthdays, one for graduations, and Leann and Phil's 25th anniversary. We had a lot left over so there goes what weight I've lost.
Zoey had STRONG opinions about the pool. (It was funny since I don't have to live with her) I made the mistake of putting my feet in the water which got her VERY interested. At one point, she fell in. Fortunately, Uncle Zack and Pops (Paul) were close by. Zack jumped in to get her and Paul grabbed her about the same time. It made her mad more than it scared her. She's fearless when it comes to the water. I think they are going to enroll her at Miller swim school.
Graduations are this week. Wyatt (and Ashlee) graduate tonight and Zack's is on Thursday. That leaves Ethan as the only one still in high school. Bring on the kleenex, I'm going to need it. I can't believe how fast time has gone. The other day, I was watching old home videos. The girls were about 3, Corey was 5 and Cole and Arin were toddlers. Zack and my boys weren't even twinkles in our eyes yet. It was taken in June, 1987 at Pequetta and Royal's house for Mom's birthday. I laughed as much at our hairstyles as I did at the kids playing. Did we really think that looked good? At least I was thin back then.
More later after graduations............
