Teen parties

One of these days, I will get used to adding to my blog every day. I love it when people say they would be so bored to be a stay at home Mom. Say what??!!!

My oldest, Nick, graduated on Friday, June 13th from Nathan Hale high school in Seattle. Yep, Friday the 13th! Told him he will never forget the date of his graduation. Mario, my youngest, will graduate in 2 years and it most likely will be on his birthday, June 11th. Poor kid. His birthday got pushed around so much this year because of senior awards night, a huge program Mario's class put on another night, graduation night and too much more. Nick will be starting college at UW Tacoma come September. Very proud of that young man.

I was up for 46 straight hours the day of graduation. I was the number one fundraiser for the class all night party and had agreed to work the party. (I would be happy to help anyone who is raising money for their school!!) It was a blast!! We kept 165 kids from drinking and driving on their big night. It was the largest turnout ever for the all night party. We did good!!! Mario has told me I need to make his party even better. I am the procurement chairman for the class of 2010 and know I will do a great job.

Last Friday, I hosted a party for about 15+ teens to celebrate the graduation. Warning!!! It would probably be cheaper and easier to just take them all to a restaurant!! Silly thing cost me $300 and 2 days of cooking, cleaning and weeding. It was scheduled to go from 1-7PM. However, it actually started at noon and the last of the group did not leave until midnight. They all had so much fun!! I love all of these young people so I had a great time, too.

Completed a big landscape project while getting ready for the party. And worked for about 25 hours in my own yard. It is not done but, looking a lot better.Now that I have recovered, I am ready for another project. Need to have another plant sale, too. Trying to get rid of what I have left.

After winter lasting until last week, we hit 100* on Friday. Wow!! A tad cooler Saturday and Sunday. Only 75* today. Easier to work outside.

Hope everyone has an amazing week!!
