Graduation - 2005
Came across this CD while going thru stuff after my move. It was sandwiched between some return address labels from 3 houses ago and my 2006 tax return documents... just to give you an idea of how in depth my cleaning/organizing really was!


These are some rather blurry pictures Russ Hansen took at my High School Graduation Reception. Dont mind my added commentary which is half the fun! Teehee

Best Cake EVER! Image
Grandma holding my Niece Felicity while Raimie finishes up last minute details

ImageRaimie finishing up last minute details
ImageAww... my dear, dear Russell Sayles
ImageIs it just me or does Candy look like she's going to punch someone... And unfortunatley Ryan is covering up ALL my achievements (Maybe that's why he's smirking!!) Oh well, I'll just tell you what they were} 4-H, Art, HomeSchoo...

ImageThe guests begin to arrive... I'm counting on Elenor to entertain them until I get around to greet them myself.
Rod (Thinking to himself) : Hmm... I wonder if that hot chick Luanne will be here so I can ask her to ride my motorcycle with me!!
ImageJeffrey (Thinking to himself): How does Raimie's work always end up becoming my work... GET USED TO IT JEFFREY!!
ImageLittle Patrick: When can I graduate?
Me: When you're THIS big, and only if you can manage to attain excellent posture like myself!
ImageHaha! Why do I have that goofy look on my face?! If I could see into the future I was probably thinking about how I would have to spend a fat chunk of my graduation money on a speeding ticket two weeks later.... headed to ANTIOCH no less!!
ImageBeautiful
ImagePlan A: Greet guests as they arrive
ImagePlan B: Distract Elenor so my guests can grab a bite to eat
ImageCyndie (To mom): Let's see now, you must be the 'MOG' today!!
Heidi (To Katie): That's ok, I'm going to shave mine too in about a year
Image
My words exactly "Auntie Lu, you are looking quite svelt today" (Probably the only time I've used the word 'svelt' to this day... Hmm (Note to self, insert 'svelt' into everyday conversation)
Image Russ teaching me how to play the piano...
Piano?! Ha! Piayes!

Image Schnackers Arrive - AHH! Just noticed my car in the background!! Check it out
Image Me directing people

Image Look at all that hair!!
Image Jelineks: ARE WE LATE?! Whew! No - We made it before the Kleebs and they're NEVER late!Image
Sweet:)
ImageKleebs arrive
Image Mom (Thinking to herself): Heidi is doing SUCH a good job directing
Image Meshayla: I thought you said there was FOOD!

Image Wohohoa! Look at how little Katie was
Image Mom: Yeh, now that we got this out of the way we don't have to worry about Heidi anymore...
Image "Shortcut!" *Whoosh*

Image "There it is!!" Hungry?!
Image Aww! (And if you thought this was exhausting, try having 3 kids!!... Wait - You did)

Image Hmm... Rebecca, must be thinking of something far away, or is she sleep walking?!
Image Little bitty Conner
Auntie Luanne (Thinking to herself): There he is! I just can't wait to get my hands on him!

Image "Ooo... a camera! Can't wait for that to get shoved up my blasted nose for the rest of my LIFE!"

Image "Act natural" (There's a wonderful oxymoron for you)
Image "Ugh, If this thing doesn't get out of my face I'm gonna go find someone else to carry me"
Image Auntie Lu: Got him!
Meshayla: I ate too much!
David: How many more of these BORING family shindigs do I have to suffer thru?
Me: When do I get to drive my car?
Dad: When do I get to EAT?!
Image Jeanne: In 4 years I'm gonna have a baby to take up my time
Auntie Maxine: In 4 years I'm gonna have a blog to take up my time

My guests enjoying the good food and great company (or atleast it appears that way)

Smile on three, 1....

Image Where's Waldo?

Image You can't see it but Katie was TOTALY picking her nose, I'm just a nice sister and cropped it out *patting myself on the back*
Dad (Thinking to himself): Almost there, all I want is a piece of cheese!
Image Ok, no comment needed
Image Dad:"CHEESE!"
Image "Jack this is my favorite Grand daughter Heidi, Heidi this i..Blahblahblah"
Image Holmes arrive. Doesn't Kaylinda look svelt just there?
(Ok, Heidi, there's a time and place)
Image Grandma Jane: She DID?! She DIDN'T... She DID?! She di..."
