Summertime!

Aahh...summer. After a grueling 2nd year of graduate school, the last day of final's week is definately the best day of the year.

Summer officially began this year when I woke up at 4 am and came upon Tanner, sound asleep, sitting on the couch with the t.v. on and a piece of floss stuck between his teeth. I laughed for quite awhile.

Thegraduate school here is awesome! They always throw the best end of year bash for everyone. This year Tanner played in their golf tournament. It was fun to trek Liam along and mingle with the professors. The dean even drove around on a golf cart giving out munchies and cold drinks. Tanner was in total-fun-mode.

That night Wal-Mart threw all the students an end of the year barbeque/fun night. They really went all out.. there was live music, a clown, crafts for the kids, a bouncy balloon castle, and....

face painting!!! Liam decided he'd do his own face painting with some cake icing, even though they had a real face painter there.
We really had a great time and felt very grateful for the much deserved "thank-you" from the school for another year of hard work done.

I swear just looking at that cake made my stomach pooch out even more

I think Tanner's hair is longer than Kat's. :)

And maybe the same length as mine; )

Wal-mart threw them a party? Is that for good PR? Sounds like fun--we're way excited for sunshine and outdoor adventures.

I decided that I'd make a blog too- was feeling a bit left out by the rest of the fam:
