Graduation and Such

Well, today Baby Rachel graduates from high school. Kinda sad, but happy at the same time. I just can't believe she is going to be 18. Hopefully it doesn't rain and we all get to go. Otherwise...well, let's just pray for no rain. Yesterday was her party and she had a really good turnout. The weather was very cooperative yesterday. I'm so proud of Rachel and all she has accomplished. She is one incredible person and I know she is going to be very successful. Baby Rachel is all grown up.

Well, today we start daily PCC practices. The show is in just a little over a week! CRAZY!!! I'm so excited though. It's going to be a great show. If you don't have a ticket to come see the show yet, just let me know. I can get you one. This is a show you do not want to miss!

Well, since it's been a while, I have some pictures to share with you. Hope you enjoy them. Lucy is getting so big...almost as big as Copper. And since I haven't posted many pictures of Minnie, she has a debut here today. Enjoy!



Look how big and beautiful she is! Copper actually looked at the camera for once!





Minnie's new spot to lay is right on the kitchen table. Luckily for me, we were in the process of getting a new fridge and deep cleaning the kitchen so I had to wash the table later anyway.

She and Dave were playing...I know she looks evil here!

And this is where she attacked the camera! haha

Lucy loves to lay with daddy and she laid like this for almost 2 hours!





Close-up of her beautiful face!

What? haha

She wasn't too thrilled about this but look at my cowardly lion! This was Copper's Halloween costume last year and he is too big for it now, but she is the perfect size for it.

Sitting pretty and posing for mommy!


Well, that's all for now. This is going to be a really busy week so I might not have too many posts to share. I'll try to get some more pictures, especially of Civic Chorus once the show starts and get those posted. Until then...you will just have to come see the show if you want to know what it's about!

Until next time!

Here Ya Go!

OK Megan, here are some recent pictures for you. Lucy and Copper got to go on a car ride down to St. Louis. We had tickets for a Cardinals/Cubs game.


These are pictures of Copper in the car. I thought the tongue was hillarious!


Lucy slept the whole way down to St. Louis and the whole way back. She was so good!
Here she is when she was just a little puppy. Just wait until you see how she looks now!
This is my ADORABLE niece Sierra! She was being tickled and was squirming but I still got a great picture!
And this is Lucy now. Isn't she getting big? She's so fun!



Copper hates to have his picture taken.

Now for some pictures of the game. We had seats in rows 16 and 17 behind home plate. They were amazing and the pictures don't do the view justice! Enjoy!!

Me, April and Amanda. Yes they are both Cubs fans. (Good thing the Cards won!!!)

View from our seats. So amazing!




Today we participated in the Race for the Cure. We had such a large group this year. We were walking in celebration of my mom, my Great Aunt Betty and some others too. Mostly for my mom though. It is so wonderful that we have her around and she is doing so well.
The group in order from left to right. Judy, Stevie (my cousin), Lindsay (my cousin), Rachel (my lil sis), Jordan (behind Rachel, my cousin) Denielle (behind Jordan, my cousin) Aunt Joy (next to Denielle) Michelle (my lil sis) Grandma Oltman, Mom (my hero), Grandma Frazier, Megan (my cousin behind Grandma F) Aunt Jody (next to Megan) Me (next to mom), Mallory(my cousin) Jacey (my cousin) Marie (Aunt Jody's mom). Sara was unable to walk with us but met us later for breakfast. After the race we went to Missy's cafe in Pekin. It was good and I think we all really enjoyed the family time.

Now some pictures while walking:


Aunt Jody, Marie and Mom


Mom, Aunt Joy and Grandma Oltman



Mom, our survivor!
A view of thousands of walkers in front of us. I forgot to take a picture of behind us.

Well, hope you enjoyed the updates and pictures. I need to go take care of my monsters before they terrorize my sisters.
