family fun day

The family fun day of Britt's grad had me making coffee by 9. The day that followed was filled with family fun & food. Thank you to everyone for coming and making Britt's weekend so memorable.

Shaina ran to town to borrow a friends back pack for her up coming Maui trip and kindly picked up the fundraiser planters, THANKS Dudie!! Everyone was gone by about 7, Sheldon and I began clean up and picture download and Britt caught her breath ;)

We will get some pictures printed up and thank you cards added to them but know that we all appreciate the time and effort it took to be a part of it. SUPER big thanks to the glam squad, Amanda & Kaylin, the hair lasted all w/e and the makeup sure could have. Thanks for making this another weekend to remember everyone and for those who could not be with us, we missed you ;)

Today is Brittany's really big day, her grade 12 graduation. Thanks to the glam squad who accented her beautiful assets & Gail for the pretty bling she was soon set for the first portion of the day; ceremonies. Thanks to Sheldon and Dad for securing seats for us all at the standing room only gymnasium. (214 graduates with unlimited family and friends fills up quick)

Britt's love of animals shows in her choice of picture mates ;)
