Hello to all.......GRADUATION

Hi Everyone! YEAH! Friday, and weekend is here. This week has been kind of long this week, and happy to see it go, and move onto another one.

This weekend I am trying to work on addresses for everyone, get them all together, and between Diane & I hoping we can get the ones that are needed. That time of year...GRADUATION! Please mark your calendars for Sunday, May 30th from 2-4 p.m. in Storm Lake. Trying to let everyone know in advance before the invites are put into the mail too. I am hoping within the next couple of weeks to have the invites ordered, received, addressed, and on their way to all of you for this special occasion for Nick & Samantha.

So, hope everyone comes by here to see this, and also a few minutes ago I did send out emails to everyone about this too. I hope this gets out to everyone so that they are aware of the date & time of this special day for Nick & Samantha. Nothing fancy, but just getting together as family & friends makes it special enough to share this day with the 2 kids.

Other than that nothing else to stay busy with right now. Snow melting...YEAH! Was doing so good with the basement staying dry, but now this past week the floor has gotten wet. LOL! Even have a frog down there that likes a little hole in the floor that has collected water. At least he appears to be enjoying this time with in & out of the water puddle he found:-)

Hope this finds everyone doing well, and are able to enjoy the weather that is changing for the better for us. Take care everyone & will keep ya'll updated with the Graduation that is going to start coming at us fast now:) Have a Great Weekend Everyone!!

Hello To All That Visit!!

Hello everyone & glad you could stop by here to view, visit, whatever. Well, graduation will soon be here, and wondering how things will go. Nick graduates on the 23rd in Sheldon, and we will have something small at the house for a few people. But, on May 30th is when we will all come together for Nick & Samantha's graduation in Storm Lake, IA. I am hoping that within the 1st week of April I start sending out a few invitations to everyone to remind of this event. With the invitation you will get the address in Storm Lake for the event for these kids to be at, and the time too. Hope everyone is able to be there, and attend the event with us. Samantha, Dave & Diane will be here from New York too. Not sure when they are coming in, and how long. Some of you might already know this as usually don't hear too much from them. But, hope everyone is able to at least come by, and visit for a while too.

As of right now Nick intends to attend NCC at Sheldon for welding, and gonna do some mechanical stuff too. The emphasis being on the welding. That is his desire, and his passion to do. So, hopefully it all works out for him. As long as he likes it, and is determined it should go good for him there.

Hope everyone is having a good day, and wishing ya'll a great weekend! As long as it keeps warming up around here the mood is definitely good, and not so boring. Cabin fever....UGH! Take care everyone!:)

Hello Family & Friends

Nick's first attempt at cooking a pancake himself. He did very well...he just made too much mix, but he still did well. We weren't home, and he had to send a picture of what it looked like so far. Not bad kiddo!:)















Well Now...this was a while ago, but Karma sweetheart got into Mommy's purse. She wanted to be pretty too!:) Got a little messy there baby girl:) That's ok, we still love ya!:)















This was a time when we went to Walmart. Mommy was off shopping some where in the store, and great Uncle Nick & I were working on trying to keep her occupied. This was something Nick did with her, trying on all the glasses....Hey, she had fun!:)

Well, hope this finds all family & friends doing well. Last night I played around with a few places to get an idea of what to do for the invitations that need to be done for graduation. I THINK...maybe I might have something picked out. I was going to put everything onto a disc that I put together, and then take it to a printer to have them done was a thought. First thought was to do it at home, but then I have to get some paper, and then there goes the ink for the words to be printed, and the pictures of the 2 graduates too. Then, I started looking at some of the sights for picture developing to see what they had to offer. Got some ideas, and hopefully decide on something soon so that I can get them printed, and out to all of you. I hope I have everyone's addresses to be used. If I don't I might drop you a quick line asking for it, an address for someone else, and etc. IF you feel I might not have your address, maybe you know of someone who has had an address change, and etc....when you get a chance, please drop me a line with it, ok? That email address to use is shopgirlkl@yahoo.com

Hope everyone is doing well. Spring is trying to come...right?:) Hmm...can't wait! Enjoy the day, and will drop in later....Kim

Happy Monday & the First of March:-)

Hello everyone who visits! Happy Monday, and Yippee to the first of March today also! Hopefully this means that spring will soon be here. The snow is melting, getting dirty, and I am now seeing the rear ends of the white lighted animated deer that were out for christmas. Got soo much snow could not get them out from stakes in the ground, and had to wait till now. Soon we will get them out.

Well, won't be much longer and graduation will be here. The rush will be on now, huh? I have been working with some different backgrounds, and ideas of what to make with Nick & Samantha's picture on the invitations for everyone. I think I might have it narrowed to what I will do. I asked a couple of people about doing some prints with places, and if they could do what it is I am looking at. Course, they are not sure, but tomorrow I will be at one business checking with them to see if they do what I am looking for. Be easier to get to a disc what I want together, and then just have someone print them instead of using all the paper & ink here for that.

So, that is a working progress right now to get done so that I can get those to everyone in a descent time too. Course that will have the address of where things will be there in Storm Lake too. Hope it works out for many that we will see you all there. Remember, this is for Nick and Samantha. They will be coming in from New York for this, and of course for plans that they have made themselves too. ***Remember the date of: May 30th in Storm Lake, and it will be from 2-4. Course, if some want to come a little bit earlier we will be there too:) Hope everyone can be there for the kids.

Take care everyone, and you will be kept updated as the time comes closer too. Have a Great Week!:-)
