Post Monday night dinner JP let me curl her hair!
Roommates that are the same height!
I should have gone to beauty school instead...so much more fun curling hair than playing in spreadsheets.

Happy 50th Anniversary!!!
50 years!!! I know what you're thinking, there is no way my Grandma is old enough to be married 50 years. Good genes my friends...that lady has looked the same for at least 25 years and Poncho does too, minus a lot of hair that use to be on his head. hehe This couple has 10 children and too many grandchildren for me to count. We sure love them! Thanks for letting us celebrate you, your love, and the impact you've had on our lives.
This first photo captures their personalities so very well!
That is a little more reasonable.
The happy couple plus their oldest (I'll say favorite in parentheses for sake of others) granddaughter. Please note the resemblance between myself and my grandma. Basically if you'd like to see the future Jess or how I'll age through the years look no further. Many call me Coleen Junior or mistake me for another daughter, I personally won't complain because again, very good genes!
Gordo plus the Three Johns. :)
Dadio called Gordo before the party and said: Hey Gordo, let's match tonight so Jess will take a photo and I'll make her blog! Gordo's response: Sure thing, but you're buying me dinner.
They do look GREAT!
This is the inside of the anniversary book I made for my grandparents. It was a huge undertaking but all their children, in-laws, and grandchildren contributed memories about them and photos. Some parts look like a a five year old made it but over all I think it turned out pretty great.
This is what I spent almost every spare moment of time on and then some for much of the last month...now it is onto the Rawle wedding book...then I'll be retiring.
Some of the little girls plus Sam Jam at the party.

The Kid of The Family Graduates AND Turns 18...
Our very own Joshy Squashy turned 18 years old on Friday and then graduated that same night. Pretty sweet present in my opinion. Congratulations Kid! We do love you, even if you are the baby of the family. ;)
Averina and I with my "happy to be taking photos" bros.
Squashy with Poncho and Grandma
The proud parents!
(I'm sure they are partly smiling because they don't have to sit through another graduation ceremony again)
The Fabulous Five (one day we will take a good photo...)
Joshy's Everyday Outfit
Alright, really just his post graduation, birthday outfit. After spending the afternoon looking through his childhood photos and finding three plus photos of Joshy in a dress and makeup (hey I always wanted a little sister so he had no choice but to play dress up when he was little) hot pink pants don't even ruffle my feathers.
Cucumber Monster
There was an entire cucumber before Averina sat down...five minutes later...not even one slice. Watch your veggies very carefully when this one is around!
The Winner Is...
Big Smiles...for now...
See the winner on the sidebar soon. Thanks for voting.
(Mama Berry really had the final say since she did give me the breath of life.)
7 Reasons Why I've Been Ignoring You...
1. I've been playing with my little girls
2. I've been closing the books for May (literally)
3. I've been too sick to be funny
4. I've been consuming insane amounts of red meat
5. I've been consuming Idaho sized portions of potatoes in all their forms
6. I've been having sleepovers with the cutest 4 yr old that loves me
7. I've been eating home-canned pears every morning for breakfast
