I Plotted My Course - - -
And I coursed my plot!!!
I got to and grazed through 10 (T-E-N) graduation open houses today!!!!
Whew - - - I'm tired!!!
Best Pastries Award - - - goes to David. These tiny little pastries were not only beautiful, they were the tastiest I've EVER had. They included strawberries wearing little tuxes with mortar boards on their "heads" and tiny little lemon meringue tarts.
Best Punch Award - - - goes to Jordan. This was a decadent mocha frappe punch. Yum.
Most Atmosphere Award - - - goes to Todd. Their ENTIRE back yard was landscaped, set up with tables, a campfire pit, and more. Pure awesomeness.
The "IN" graduation party food this year - - - pulled pork with BBQ sauce.
Most Likely to Prank the Teacher Award - - - goes to John A, who pulled a good one on me nearly as soon as I walked in the door!!!!
Best Cake Award - - - goes to Christi, she searched online till she found a graduation cake like the ones they make on those cake contests on the Food Network. It was magnificent!!!
The Most Unique Drink Server - - - goes to Megan who had a tiny "kiddie" pool with a plastic palm tree coming up out of the center. The pool part around the tree trunk was filled with ice and canned drinks were buried in the ice. It was cuuuuute!!!

I don't know how we missed each other today. I loved your comments about the kid's Open Houses.
We must have plotted different courses!!!! :-)
Next year I want an open house buddy - - - maybe I'll "twist" Diane's arm!!!
are you a teacher?
I am going back to school right now to earn my bachelors and then go on to get my teaching degree
Yes, I'm a teacher. Can't you get your teaching degree AS you get your bachelors????
I teach middle and high school science in a small Christian School.
no. I will email you about it. If I give away the name of the school, I give away where I live and I don't want to do that in public.
Keetha,
In response your question on my post:
My babies are homeschooled - B10 went to public school for Kindergarten, then has been homeschooled since (he's about 1/2 way through 3rd grade - we do school year round).
CW went to private Kindergarten, and he's already begun his 1st grade studies.
Thanks for asking! You sound like you had a very full day!
Very full indeed!!!
Hey Miss Keetha !
It was so good to see you yesterday ! Sorry we got interrupted in our "chatting".
I did come home & watch that video that we talked about. Totally awesome. Very much of a blessing !
Happy Anniversary to you & your hubby ! Have a great Memorial Day today.
Jackie
Jackie, it certainly WAS fun to see you too. Conversations getting interrupted at open houses is just par for the course - - - don't you think?
I went over to Jordan's from there and then home. I was TOTALLY exhausted by that time. :-)
Perhaps I'll see you at Stephen Briles' or Haley Wampner's today?
I am helping Sue W. w/ Hayley's Open House, so yes, I will be there & see you for sure ! :-)
Great!!! See you after while.
Whew! I hope it keeps you young. We're still a few years away from that, but we're planning John's Eagle Court of Honor for this summer. Don't think we'll dress up the strawberries, though.
I'm a bad daughter. I forgot your anniversary!! :( I'm so sorry! I just called and talked to Dad and he told me not to feel bad because YOU forgot it too! LOL!! Anyway, I tried your cell phone but it was OFF so I guess I'll tell you here...Happy LATE Anniversary!!
So what was the prank that John A. pulled??
Thanks for the anniversary wish!!! We haven't celebrated yet - - - too much graduating going on.
I'll tell you about John A and his prank tomorrow in person - - - -
:-)
Great ideas!
and happy anniversary (smile!)
