buyout + tornado = 10

I have been busy this week preparing for our first day of school for the 08-09 school year. I think we will be lucky to have ten!? students in the K-8 building... It's going to be so different/quiet there. They are thinking about closing the elementary building and moving all of us over to the high school...

Sunday was Mom's 52nd birthday. We had a family dinner Monday night. Willy grilled steaks, Mish made salad and blackberry cobbler, I fixed corn on the cob, cheese & veggies, texas toast and hobo potatoes, and we had ice cream cake from DQ. I was busy cooking/eating/cleaning so I don't have any photos to share... The boys made cards for Mom. "Silly" Gage drew a chicken with one leg playing a ukulele. At least that's what Gunner said it was. I think he must have learned about ukuleles on an episode of Blue's Clues...

Aunt Jeannie will be here tomorrow! She is coming down for Kelsey and Seth's wedding reception on Saturday.

I'm going to watch some more of the Olympics...

I leave you with a few more photos from the wedding...
