My Girls

Projects

Mom and Jessica Project

This week Jessica and I have been doing lots of things together. Our big project was making stepping stones. As you can see Jessica is very talented and creative. Her stepping stone is the one that looks so great. She did a fantastic job. Mine on the other had looks very sad. We had fun doing the project together. We plan on making more in the future. So look for more projects.

Changes

Yes, have had changes in my life. First having an 18 year old, then having her graduate, go off and get a job and go to collage. Wow, this is big. when the girls were babies I did not think about this day. I mostly thought about them turning 16 and wondering what kind of teens they would be. I can say I have the best girls ever. Jessica says that she is glad to be an only child. It does feel like it now as Becca is home less now than she was in High School. She started her job last Tuesday, and she started her summer collage class on Monday. She is also going to institute on Tuesday nights and finishing up her dancing year with her recital in two weeks.

It has been good for Jessica and I to hang out and do things together. I have been really busy with Becca her senior year. Now Rebecca is off being an adult, and Jessica and I are enjoying our well deserved time together. Jessica tried summer school on Monday, but that did not work out. It was to long of a day for her. So she is doing the Internet course. It is the same price, and Jessica has more time at home. She loved being homeschooled and that the Internet course is like that. The other thing Jessica is going to work on is getting her driving permit. I hope soon. Even thought It sure cost a lot to drive these days.

Rawhide

Grandpa Hartman turns 70

For Grandpa's 70th birthday, we took him to Rawhide western town. What a treat this was. There were cowboys and gun fights. It was a great day in Arizona, only in the 80's.

Yes, there was a shotgun wedding. Grammie and grandpa got hitched. It was so fun.

A great end to a great evening. Dancing under the stars for the newlyweds.

Oh No,

It was a Cool, Wet, Rain all day, No pour all day, day in Phoenix.

Yes that is how it was on Thursday May 22, 2008.

A day Rebecca will never forget, ever, her graduation day,

Instead of having the graduation on the football field, They put

the kids in the auditorium and the parents were spread throughout

the school, in the gym, cafeteria, class rooms, and Hawk Hall.

We go to watch her on a screen. All I can say is at least becca was

dry and with her friends. She did it, She Graduated from High School.

Cathy Roe's Ultimate Dance

Rebecca had a Dance Competition on Saturday. She Performed her solo and many group dances. She received a High Gold for her solo. She also got a special award for her solo, The producers choice award. It was given to her because they said she was ready for Broadway.

I do believe she would love to dance on Broadway. The studio also got a special award, it was the entertainment award. Our Director loves to receive this award. I will say our studio really

loves to be entertaining.
