Best party ever.............

too bad I went to watch the end of the NASCAR race and proceeded to get soaked and one total interference on the dish. NO watching that.I rounded the corner at June's house headed for home.......it started off as sprinkles and end up in one soaking rain.....I barely made it home in my golf cart.....pants soaked, shirt soaked, shoes soaked.........

SO here are a few photos from Joe and Sharlene's happy retirement party. These are all the folks holding on to the tent so it wouldn't blow away.....Ron, Mark and I appreciate you dedication....but I was probably the most dedicated :)

Nothing says HANG ON................like the above photos....save the tent from the gustnadno :)

669.3 miles......

round trip to watch our Goddaughter/Niece Mikenzie Nordeen Graduate from Alliance High School on Sunday. And here is the photo to prove the miles.....and notice the lovely temperature.....ahhhhh.........

Thanks to the Big Iron Impala for getting us there and back safe and sound..........sorry about the hail in Broken Bow but that is why we took you.....our pretty new vehicles don't need the miles or the dents :)

I dropped Ron off at the office in St. Edward so he wouldn't miss his Monday power meetings and rushed home to my little brown dog. OH MY what a greeting that was, but my dog is soooooo smart, he knew Ron and I left together and I carried Ron's suitcase in that as soon as all my love was given, he was looking for Ron. I don't blaim him......Ron loves him and he loves his Ron. 

It was worth every mile to see this beautiful young woman that I stood so proudly as her Godmother as she was being Baptized so many years ago.

She's so smart, such an amazing Athlete and just such an all around great little gal. I wish we lived closer over the years so Uncle Ron and I could have been more a part of her life, but she was always on our mind. My greatest regret was not making it to her first communion. The most important day in her spiritual life, but my Dad passed away on the Thursday before and the Sunday was his visitation. What awful timing for something that two Godparents didn't want to miss but I do have the special Angel that the Nordeen family sent me..........I think about that alot......I am sorry Kenzie, but I hope you know we love you so much!

My words on Kenzie.....She dances like a super Star.....Runs like everyone else is standing still and makes me amazed at her sheer ability to Pole Vault, but most of all she is a very special girl in my life and love her with allllllll my heart......just like the rest of you little turds :)

I would drive another 6 hours to see her happy, smiling face........

Shock, Jock and Rock.....

WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL all I can say about the Alliance graduation is.........WHO THE H*LL knew that some kid would rip of his gown and go streaking across the field in his Jock Strap.....jump over a fence and disappear into the afternoon. I am still stunned :) BUT.....

Our beautiful niece is now a graduate, her boyfriend was NOT the bare man and she knew nothing about it. So for all those questions you got Kenzie.....I only asked you one? WHO WAS THAT KID :)

So my sermon: FOR THE LOVE of God please my Future Graduating Nephews PLEASE do not do that. To the ones who saw it, it wasn't that cool. Be the respectable young man that I love and respect. Running in your jock strap is NOTHING that anyone is this family wants to see.....and to my already graduated Nephews Seth Boschen, Sheldon Boschen and Taylor Roan........THANK YOU for not doing something so freakin stupid.

NOW on to Kenzie's day..........how did you manage to be so calm and your Mom too? State track for three days basically and getting home at Midnight on Saturday night, the night before your graduation, but now I understand your graduation didn't even last an hour.........I love the beach balls (reminded me of State Wrestling). My gosh my little girl........how did this happen? Graduated, grown up and so awesome.

Please please please keep you Godparents updated cause we do love you sweetheart......ALOT!

If you need ANYTHING is this world.....you call us. I love you more than Pizza :)

Alliance comfort....

Arrived today in Alliance Nebraska for our Goddaughters Graduation on Sunday. It was a long drive but what can be worse then her and her family still at the Nebraska State Track Tournament in Omaha and have a 7 hour drive home the night before Graduation.....

I am so mad that the Alliance School system did that cause I wanted to go watch her at State Track but on a side note I got to watch the Video he Dad took..........and she medaled!!!!!

So we arrived at the same hotel we stayed at on the way to Casper Wyoming for an Auction. It was ALOT worse then when John and I arrived.

BUT then Mom Stock. Amy (Stock) Nelson, and Keri Ann (Stock) Schumacher arrived in our Room and then we just sat and laughed and laughed and laughed....
