isabel's 17th birthday was on monday...and to celebrate we got our cartilage pierced. when she turned like 9 i think...we got our ears pierced. it's a great tradition. haha. every 8 years get something pierced. ok, don't really do that...cause that would be weird. but it was something fun to do. :)

graduation parties..and more graduation parties is the best way to explain this past weekend. it was crazy. erin, isabel and i went to aaron and eddie's grad party on friday night and had a blast. we ended up staying all night and just having a lot of fun, hanging out and talking and playing ladder golf under the party tent while it was raining. :)
then on saturday we went to cassie's grad party for a while and swam in her pool...it was a good time. we headed to andy's for a bit to have a bonfire.
yesterday and today have been scorching hot outside...we have the air on...it's sooo hot outside. :)

ok im going to go do something productive.

comewhatmay.

....so i'm working on updating the look of this blog...
and downloaded a few templates...
right now...i think i like this one...there's just some spanish that i had to read to figure out how to work it. and considering i don't know spanish...it was semi-difficult. also. that's why there are links on the side in spanish. yeah i'm working on changing those.....

last sunday june 7,2009 was my grandpadu's last sermon at his church in Luxemburg WI. Almost the whole family was there to have a little get together and sing for grandpadu and Jesus. :) I had an awesome time although us older cousins had nap time in the living room while everyone else was running around. I noticed while looking at pictures that us cousins look SOOO much alike even though we are all pretty different.. here's some random pics of the cousins from the past few times i've seen them.

dad took two pics of all the cousins...minus 3...i think that's everyone else. we were missing keaton, ella and adler.

gabi LOVED playing with zoe and telling her mom about the baby. :)

...the big question is...What have you been doing for the past couple weeks?!
Well I've been doing a lot of stuff...including a lot of nothing. :) Lately though I've been painting. I took up random jobs around the house to tackle painting different rooms. I've really enjoyed it and hopefully will be able to get some more done soon!
Erin and i worked on the bathroom...i didn't take a picture...cause it's a bathroom. and i thought that'd be weird. Also we painted a wall in mine and isabel's room bright green. it looks pretty sweet.

The green we had left over i used for part of the girls' room. I did three walls this purpley-lilac color...and then one wall the bright green. they really needed something to brighten their room up and these colors definitely did! after finishing the purple i traced different sized circles all around the room in clumps and by themselves to create bubbles! there was a lot of time put into it..but i had fun and it was my "alone time" :) i was so happy to hear that the girls LOVE IT...if they hadnt...i was going to switch rooms with them. ;)comewhatmay...
