Time for More Ketchup!

School is now out so one might think I would have soooo much time on my hands I could keep up my posts....but I have been VERY busy! Here are just a few things that have been happening here in J-ville recently...


Earlier this month we celebrated Jamie's and Matthews birthdays!
I got the bright idea to make 4 different kinds of cupcakes: red velvet, carrot, chocolate and lemon. It was fun! Also a lot easier than cutting cake for everyone!


Matthew and Jamie thoroughly enjoyed their birthday song then blew out the candles.
Notice the happy birthday ears...Jamie wouldn't pose with them but...


Matt was a good sport!


Kari decided to be shy for the picture...


but Liam gave a big smile for the camera!


And it was nice to have Kathy and Micheal in town!

Very shortly after our celebration, Celia marshalled for her school's
graduation...


In her tux...


tails and all!

Then just as she helped usher out the Seniors...she became one herself!
This weekend she took her Senior pictures...they do it much differently than when I was a Senior.


They still do the traditional drape...


and cap and gown shots. But now they can also do casual poses with boyfriends, pets, etc.


Now getting primped for the glam shots...


Getting instructions from the photographer...


The pose!


Another change of clothes and more primping!


A pillow shot


Last pose and...


it's a rap folks!

And in the midst of all of that Jamie got his first apartment and moved out on his own...and Celia started her first job! Lots going on in J-ville...until next time stay cool! We sure are trying to! Literally ;=)
