Graduation

Hello everyone! Despite the poor weather, i just want you to know that no one cancelled and we had an excellent weekend! Friday was rainy but Saturday was not. So, thankyou Oregon! To celebrate the craziness of this last weekend being over, we drove to Klamath Falls to attend our niece Mackenzie's high school graduation. We left at six in the morning, caravaning with the Booren's and made it in world record time to attend church with them at 9:00 a.m. (Yes, I did speed just a little!) After church, we went back to little girl heaven (aka: Aunt Christy's house full of puppies) and had a wonderful BBQ and watched as Kenzie opened gifts. Next was the graduation...and then, home for cake, ice cream, more puppies, playing in the backyard, and a few rounds of the Great Dalmuti. The kids stayed up until 11:00 p.m. watching a movie. I know..we were being irresponsible letting them stay up that late but the adults were having too much fun chatting in Jeremy and Christy's room. (and taking turns in their amazing massage chair.) all in all, it was a great, quick get-away. Now back to the grind...and another crazy, busy weekend.


The Westover's have a giant back yard with two levels. The top level is surrounded by this great wall. By the time we were getting ready to leave, Lydia and Joel were running along the top of it...completely unafraid of falling.

Here's uncle Casey, Jeremy and Mackenzie at the end of the graduation. It is fun to watch these young adults, so eager to start out on new adventures in life.

On the way home we stopped at Salt Creek Falls. It is so lovely! Oregon is filled with so many breathtaking wonders. Casey perched the nutcracker on the edge of the cliff for a picture. I was scared for him. (the nutcracker, that is...Casey was protected behind a fence)
