We're enjoying the start of a nice long weekend. Rachel's friend Savannah is visiting today and we tried to take a walk to the creek but decided against it.

Tomorrow is the big day- the kids' last day of school and their graduation ceremonies. After that, Nicolle will be moving on to high school (ACK!) and Rachel will be a middle school student.

And of course we saw all kinds of other ( Read more... )
