Weekend Fun

Johnie and Dee after a day full of shopping! It was such a fun weekend with them!

I went to the first bridal shower of the year last Saturday morning. It was for Amy, our friend from Harrisonville.

The bride-to-be and me

Some of the girls

One of the really cool things about the shower was that I got to see Bryn's baby, Keenan James, for the first time... he was so precious, but he slept the entire time so I didn't get to play with him. Guess I'll just have to wait 'til next time!

This is an example of what I do in class. The process of determining the rings was extremely complex and took several hours.
I realize this is a strange item to post but I hope it gives everyone a little better idea of what types of projects I work on.

Adventures in humility...

For all of us out there who slip up and say things incorrectly, and then get ridiculed by those who rarely slip up, I have wonderful news for you: the other day Brad saw a commercial for Ci-Ci's, and was thinking about his favorite pizza place, Cheezie's, and then said "I want to go to Chi-Chi's!" So funny... be sure to ridicule him because I don't know if he'll have another slip up for awhile!!!

So maybe this post was pretty random... don't worry, I have pics to add later when I'm at home... so check back in!
