And Time Marchs on...

8Th Grade Graduation was on Friday afternoon. Was a nice Ceremony but I found my self drifting back in time. This Gym were my "baby" walks across the stage is the very same Gym that I walked in for my High School graduation. I can tell you that 17 year old girl would have LAUGHED in your face if you would have told her she would be back in Homer raising a family and 26 years later would watch her last child walk across the same stage. I looked around and spyed many of my own class mates watch their children do the same. ~ This gym were I played basketball and fouled out REPEATEDLY,Died my own special hell in gym class,buried a classmate,made out under the bleachers,Cheered my heart out and my voice,decorated,Practiced the Miss Homer Pageant wave,danced,cryed,loved and finally walked to my own future in. ~~~ Time does indeed march on and as I refocused and got my thoughts back to the STAR of the day I found myself smiling a real life HUGE HAPPY and PROUD smile! So To you Chase Crauthers welcome to your High School years may they be EVERYTHING you want and more!


Don't they all look so nervous ? I asked why weren't ya smiling he says This is SERIOUS stuff. lol OK then!

Of course the Choir sang .... They sang Graduation although Chase and some buddies tryed with great Ernest to get Robs to let them do Don't Stop Believing .. Don't ask me why something about it being a KICK ASS song.. YA NOO it isn't but what ev!!

Here is the official handshake !!


The theme of graduation was Hollywood here is were we could take pics but so dark hardly any turned out SADNESS The stars on ground had each graduates name. thought that was pretty darn cute! ~~ Poor kids still have go to school next week make up for the 2 SNOW DAYS we had... yes i am making em go. You haven't done your job as a parent if you kids don't hate ya at least once!! ;op

Life gave me a little brother
to teach me about life.
He loves me,
Aggravates me,
and gives me strength and strife.
Thank goodness for my brother
He is as special as can be
Don't mess with my little brother
- or you'll have to mess with me!

Any way it was a great day!

My Baby Boy .....

OK When the hell did my snugly baby become a 260 pound 14 year old foot ball player?? Who will in 2 weeks be a Freshman in high school??

He has been nicknamed BIG RIG on the football field. So I guess Coke Machine is now a thing of the past ...... He was VERY excited for this weeks Jamboree. Heck he has been wanting to play foot ball for 6 years and FINALLY this year he is able. He is the Center and played in every play ......

They played Sky view on Thursday at the old high school football field. As always it was windy,wet and cold. Seems it always was and is up there... I ha vent a clue to what the score was YES I MAY have been chatting a bit with some folks. ~ Queen Elizabeth was even up at the field getting some girl to drive her around on her kick but tricycle lol seriously that girl knows what she is doing i tell ya! Ms Terry couldn't be there she was home with the handsome Vinnie who wasn't feeling all that great.


He had a great night of football and was THRILLED with how he played. I see a very busy Fall ahead of us. Many MANY hours back at the Mariner football field !!!

And just so you don't think he has gotten all "teenagerish" on me I must Brag about how he did the Migration 5k with me. It was what I wanted for mothers day. We had a great morning together while the rest of the house slept away.... It was a great run from the fishing hole to the Light House at the beginning of the spit. I asked him if he wanted to walk back to the car he voted NO LOL !!!So He took the shuttle. I ran back witch was some what annoying as my time BACK was almost 2 minutes faster then my official run. When I got back we chilled at the fishing hole wishing we had poles. Awww soon we will be chillen at the Hole cussing cause we cant get a fish!!
