Playing Catch up again...

Where on earth did June go!?!?! Has anyone seen it? I am just so crazy. For starters, I am denyal that we are actually moving in 4 days!!! I honestly don't know where to start.   Since my last post the kids have finished School.  Liza had a 5th grade promotion.. which she was happy to be a part of.
It was silliness really, but the kids had fun.  And it was nice to see her teachers again, one last time.  
As soon as they stepped off the bus on Friday afternoon the party started and hasn't seemed to cease since.  We kicked the summer off with a sleepover with Victoria and Sophia.  Oh how fun!

When Sophia saw that Brent had set up the tent, she wasn't shy about telling him how "Awesome" he was for setting it up for them!  They had a ball.
The big girls set up a tent of their own in the living room.  Everyone was up all night, which must mean it was fun!  Alex went over to Wyatt's but I don't have pictures of that.   I am sure they had a ball too.
The Tuesday after school let out Tori chopped off her hair.  Well Tori didn't really do it, Kristen did, but she wanted to take it all off and donate it like Liza has done 3 times already.  I am so proud of my girls for being so  happy to part with their hair for others.  (really I think it's because I am not a gentle hair brusher... but what ever it takes eh? )
I LOVE her new hair!  It is so cute and so fresh and so EASY!! Oh so easy!  I am so proud of you Tori, what a sweet girl you are.
Brent Graduated from Residency. We all went to the dinner, and my 4 hoodlums were the only kids there, so they were the entertainment for the night for many of the guests.  Not many people in Brents program have children.  
Here he is with a bunch of his fellow graduates.  It was a very nice night where he was recognized for his work as a Chief Resident and also as a graduate.  During the "roasting" period, he was 'teased' for his ability to grow a mustache.  (Brent can grow em with the best of them.)
Then the music started and the kids started to dance.  No one else danced... just my kids, and really a lot of people just watched laughed and took pictures of all their moves.  No one really dances at these things anyway, so at least we made good use of the DJ.  They had a ball.  I think it is a night that Liza will always remember.  
We've kept very busy trying to squeeze in our "lasts" .  Trying to see all our friends and have fun with everyone before we leave.  Liza has had her last sleepover with Mia, and a bunch of girls from Activity days (thanks Mendy, I can't tell you how perfect that timing was!)  Alex and Tori had their last sleep overs with Natalia and Wyatt.  And all in all we are quite sleep deprived around here.  Emotions are running high.  Alex had a little break down today.  SO SO sad that he is moving, and so sure that he will loose his friend forever. :-(

Meanwhile I've been doing so last minute photography sessions with some friends and just thought I would pop my fave from each one here at the end.

I still need to blog about  Harpers Ferry,  my new hair cut, my prayers about denial, and I have got to tell about Katies "meow meow secret" .  Okay, there is a blog "to do" list for next time.

Gotta love summer.
