Earlier this week, we finally got to have Emma's Meridian Technology graduation ceremony. With all the rain, floods, flash floods and tornado warnings, things kept getting canceled and postponed. So, we got to have it, just nit with all the fanfare that was originally planned. So, Tuesday morning, those of us who could get off work or out of prior obligations went to the ceremony and watch Emma graduate from her first year of Precision Metal Fabrication at Meridian Technology Center. She was also recognized as the top student in her program! SO PROUD!

| Wat yo go, Emma! |
Lara started her summer Nannying job back up this week. But Monday was a holiday. And Thursday and Friday she was off. So she babysat for 2 days - got paid for 5! Life of luxury! LOL! Jake spent the week at basketball camp, and Friday was the culmination with final games and awards, Lara got the most excellent position of wrangling Finn during all of this! If she wasn't babysitting for someone else, she could babysit for me! They both felt like they spent way too much time in the gyms at the high school on Friday!
After basketball camp was over, I took Lara to the bank to open her first checking account. She deposited the rest of her birthday money, her first paycheck this summer, and walked out with a debit card. Now, to make sure she manages it appropriately!
The rest of the weekend was pretty lazy. It seems like the weeks are hectic and the weekends are chill this time of year. But we are gearing up for jobs to get busy, mom to start summer classes, and Jake's basketball team to travel all over the place! Enjoying the peace while we can!
