Another shower
Filed under Uncategorized by sherriknits at 7:17 pm on May 06 2007
Today we had a family shower and it was really nice and cozy. Here are some of the pictures…just click to move to the next one.
The weekend was crazy. We enjoyed our little bit of quiet time when we got left off at the motel. We walked over to Ihop and ate breakfast for dinner, then had several hours to relax. I was so dead tired that I didn’t touch my knitting, but I did read a knitting book, so maybe that counts!
The graduation ceremony started at 10 a.m. and there were about 350 graduates. I couldn’t believe it when we got out of there at 1:18! The crush of people trying to leave was horrendous. We all went to Applebee’s for lunch, then to see the University before we headed to the mall and home. I have been playing the purchase/return/purchase game. I have one more thing to take back. Somehow I feel like I’m expanding my wardrobe anyway, but it has been so much work! None of the stores I’ve purchased from are close to home so every time we get up that way, I have things to run into the mall when we’re flying by to some other event.
I’m still trying to dig out my stuff from the mess the dear boy created. I just haven’t had the heart or ambition (or time) to really attack it.
We got home late last night. We were bulletin servers at church this morning and then came home for a short time before we headed to the shower. Now I am home with my feet kicked up and too lazy to go see if I can get a cute picture of a mischevious boy.
Hopefully knitting content to come!

Oh Sherri… I am supposed to be knitting right now, and I’ve spent the last 30 + minutes trying to make the GoodWidgets picture thing work for my blog. I’ll talk to you Tuesday about this!

The slide show won’t load so I’ll have to check back soon. My graduation had over 1000 people and I don’t think we took much longer than that one! (It was one of 4 ceremonies, too… yay for big state schools) A lot of people–including graduates–left early, but I stayed till the bitter end. It was fun once I found another dedicated soul I knew and we discussed post-graduation plans for the last hour or so.

The shower pictures are so wonderful. I’m sure everyone had a wonderful time!
I hope you can get the clothes all back where they belong soon without too much trauma and effort.
Give the little guy a hug from Oklahoma! : )
