Graduation!!!

So we had a very full weekend and a pretty busy week this past week. I am glad the graduation is done and that life won't be so busy. But really I doubt we will be slowing down with all the things we now have to do and get in order. Daryl's graduation was great, Paiglee was amazing I didn't pay much attention to the speakers but none the less I think others around me were able to, so we didn't bother anyone. She was actually much better than she is during church sometimes. I took some pictures but my camera for some reason was taking dark pictures and I have no clue so I only have a few good ones and the rest are really dark I don't know if it was the lighting in there but I couldn't take far away pictures. Plus my camera wouldn't focus properly for me so I have a feeling it is because my camera isn't that great. We had a great lunch afterwards and then a dinner and we were able to sit around and talk to Daryl's family which was great since we don't get to see them that much. I am just so glad that Daryl has finished and I couldn’t be more excited for him or proud.

This week we have begun our adventure of buying a home we are only in the beginning stages but none the less it is kind of fun to look for a home. We have talked to a couple banks to see what they offer and to pretty much see what we can afford and now the fun but long process of looking for a home begins. It is really hard to do this when you don't live in the same town that you are looking to buy in. We have been left to the Internet and I have a feeling it isn't very accurate as to what is actually there. But anyway I have a feeling I am going to really like looking at places to buy, I have always been interested in real estate. Plus I can’t wait to not rent anymore.

Mothers day was good Daryl gave me the movie Juno and a baby blanket which is a little thing we have going between the two of us. My parents came over and helped us eat some of the food left over from the graduation party. Other than that nothing is really going on. Daryl is busy working and I am complaining that snow keeps falling. I am so tired of it really I don't ever want to see the snow unless it is Christmas. I just want sun, sun, and more sun. I want to run outside and I want to be able to spend my mornings at the park. I am tired of doing things in the house or trying to think of what Paiglee is going to do so she can burn her energy. Stupid weather, get your act together it is May where is the nice warm stuff.

Well until next time, enjoy.

Okay, you are going to have to explain the baby blanket thing before I start getting ideas about your family's numbers, chica.
