I so wish I could be a "everyone come on over", pull stuff out of the fridge, who cares what the house looks like entertainer. What a great group of kids~such a blessing for her to have wonderful friends!!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11998834833645862095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-11381066520916138802011-06-06T08:04:13.363-04:002011-06-06T08:04:13.363-04:00Sarah, way to go on hosting the party!

We will be doing a bonfire. Our back porch/patio is ready (I just blogged about it), now I just have to wrap my head around her going to high school and pray that it doesn't rain! Your peonies are gorgeous! Congrats on the completion of an awesome school year for all of your kiddos. hugs, cathyCathy M~(checkitoff)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03470783605176479831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-39911045001814411602011-06-06T07:19:05.471-04:002011-06-06T07:19:05.471-04:00Aw, you must be so proud of Abbey.

(My cousin and I say that we feel pretty tired!) Since my son has come home and all the kids in and out of the house, I'm feeding more people and staying up waaaay later! But I do love having the kids around. <br /><br />Seeing the graduation reminded me of my first three and how my last will not graduate with his original school. It still makes me sad. The kids at the new school, however, did not get to graduate in our church. Since the consolidation sent the new school to a new church, all the events happen there - it's a bit sad for our church community and our kids. But we are not there anyway, and I'm glad we made the change.Maiden Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09714005634771057441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-31394106658872084142011-06-06T03:03:24.048-04:002011-06-06T03:03:24.048-04:00Great post and all so true!

I also get so happy and sad at the same time each year...sad my children are growing older so quickly and happy that it's summer time and I get to have them around all the time.!

It lets you know you're doing your job right. :o)<br /><br />This time of year is always hard for me. The ending of another grade in school, and this month is also my daughter's birth month (she's turning 9!). Between those two events, it makes me realize how quickly time is passing. If only I could truly slow it down! :o)<br /><br />Sarah KateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-50109186042215834732011-06-04T12:53:35.369-04:002011-06-04T12:53:35.369-04:00Love this post!
