Graduation Announcements

Back in October I did a senior shoot for Austin. His mom had asked me if I could also make his announcements and party invites. Well of course I can.....so past few weeks I have been busy busy with making 60 Graduation Announcements and Party Invites for a friend. I finally finished them tonight and I can't wait to give them to her. I think they turned out cute and I hope she likes them. :) On top of making all that I had 170 party pictures to edit for a party I did back on March 9th (I know almost a month, Eeeek!) but those are all done as well and ready to send to people. All my projects for people are at end for now and I start focusing on some things I would like to make for our house.

This is the front of the Announcements

 This is the inside of them.

This is the 3rd year in a row I have been busy with graduation stuff but this time it isn't for my family. :) I'm glad I can help others out to make their day special! 

Congratulation Austin! Good luck to everything your future holds!! 

Kasey's Graduation Day!

My sister did it! On May 20th my sister got to walk across the stage and graduate High School from Staley. I'm so proud of her! It feels crazy to have both my brother and sister out of high school and in the real world. Still doesn't seem like it should be real. LOL. I'm so proud of them both!

My sister has grown up so much in the past few years. I have really enjoyed watching her grow into such a wonderful young lady and I can't wait to continue to watch her grow! She will be attending Maple Woods college in the fall for general education right now. She isn't sure what she wants to be just yet.

Way to go Kasey!
I'm such a proud sister of 2 amazing siblings that graduated high shool within the last few years!
I can't wait to see what the future holds for both of them!


All the graduates walking in.

 She's getting ready to walk across the stage!

And there she is, She did it!

This is Nick her boyfriend walking across stage too!

 Hats on Graduates! Congrats!!

 There's the pretty High School Graduate! Congrats sissy! You did it!

 Both Graduates. Aren't they so cute! :)

Kasey's Graduation Party

Last Saturday Shane and I hosted my sister Kasey's Graduation Party. It was a nice day outside to host this except the wind was so strong. We planned on sitting everything up at the park behind our place and have it down there. We got everything set up and ready and the wind just keep blowing everything around and off the tables, so we decided to move everything inside and we just hung out in the back of our place.

We had a ton of food, hamburgers, hot dogs, beans, pasta salad and chips. We have a ton of leftovers even after sending food home with people.

The party turned out good! I had a good time hanging out with family and meeting some of Kasey's friends.

This certificate is for the A+ program she did. She will be attending Maple Wood Community College in the fall.

The graduate!

The wonderful cupcakes and stand that was made by Jordann (Shane's sister).

Our neighbors were having a party too and they made a slip-n-slide. So one of the kids there wanted to go down it. It worked pretty good for a homemade one. Haha :)

Some of the our family Brandon (Brother), Kim (Mom), Me (Sister), Kasey (Sister), Heather (Sister) and Jessica (Cousin). Aren't we cute! :)

All her money she got.

Shane, Kasey and I.

Jordann's College Graduation

On May 5th 2012 my sister in law graduated from COLLEGE! I'm so proud of her and am so glad I was there to share this special day with her. :) 

Jordann graduated from UCM in Warrensburg with a degree in Bachelor of Science Psychology. 

Last weekend was very busy with all her graduation stuff but so worth it! Saturday was graduation day and we drove an hour down to Warrensburg to watch her walk across that stage and receive her degree! After that we headed back to home and went out to dinner to celebrate. Shane and I didn't get home till about 9pm and we left the house about 11:40am. It was a long day for us but we had a good time. 

Sunday we got up and headed over to dad's house to get ready for Jordann's graduation party.

There was a ton of hamburgers and hot dogs that needed cook so Shane hoped on that to get them all ready. He needed some help since there was a ton of food. I stepped up and helped him out on the grill, I grilled for the first time ever! Yes it was only hot dogs but still I grilled something. I did pretty good at it if I do say so myself. :) Her party was fun we got the hang out with the family and meet some of her friends. 

She is going to take a semester off  then she will go back for her Bachelor of Science in Nursing. 

She just has a year and half left to go to get that! 

Final Graduation Invite....

I have been busy lately with making lots of graduation invites and announcements. It's crazy that there are so many people I know graduating this year. I have enjoyed helping everyone out with invites and making them. 

The last invite that I did was for a good friend that is graduating college on May 12th. I whipped these babies out in just a few days. Well they were pretty easy to do and she only need 20 of them so it really wasn't that hard. ;) 

Here is the invites that I made for her graduation dinner party....

Now that I'm done working on all the invites/announcements now I get to attend all the parties and celebrate this wonderful time with all my friends and family!! I can't wait. I look forward to sharing the pictures with everyone! 

More Graduation Announcements/Invites....

My little sister will graduating high school on May 20th. I still can't believe this! I can't believe she is all grown up and ready to get in the real world. LOL

I had told her that I would make her announcements and invites for her. So I have been working hard on getting them done so we can send them out the beginning of May. I just finished them last week and they turned out super cute!

I have one graduation invite to finish this week and all graduation stuff will be made and done!

Graduation Invites

For the last week I have been working graduation invites for Shane's sister. She is graduating from college on May 5th. She had asked me to do these and I was very happy to help her out with planning her party. So I got busy because I wanted to have these done before out vacation this week, I needed to make 60 of these bad boys. I worked on them every night and finally finished them up Wednesday night. 

I think they turned out really cute!

I can't believe she is already graduating from college I feel like she just finished high school. Oh how the time  flies! I'm very proud of her and can't wait to celebrate this special day with her! 

Brandon's Graduation Day!!

My brother did it! he graduated high school. He attend Staley High School and graduated on Sunday May 22, 2011. I'm so proud of him. He has grown up to be a handsome man! It's still hard to believe my little brother is grown up and out of high school. I still remember the days of him running around the house in his underwear calling me names and getting soap put in his mouth for it....wow how the time flies and he's all grown up!
He does want attend college in the fall. He wants to work with computers (that's his love). He's very good with computers right now so I can image once he goes to school and gets his degree. He will hopefully find a great job! Shane and I are going to take him next month to go talk to someone at Devry to see what classes he needs to take. He's very excited about this!

Congrats to the Staley Class of 2011....HATS OFF GRADUATES!!!!

Brandon's Graduation Party

Today I had my brother's graduation party. It turned out to be a good party with the family. It turned out to be a nice day so we got to be inside and out. It was a little hot but at least it wasn't cold. :) Tomorrow is his graduation day. I'm so proud of my little brother and I can't wait to see him get his diploma.

Here are some pictures from his party. He looks so grown up in his cap and gown....And yes I did almost cry when he put it on for the first time. I know I'm a baby. LOL But I can't help it!

His cake was made by my friend Krystl Reynolds. I think she did a great job on it and it was very yummy to eat! 

Class of 2011 - Brandon

It's that time of year Graduation. It's hard to believe that my little brother is graduation from High School this weekend. I'm such a proud sister! I took him out in April to shoot his Senior pictures. We did some at his school Staley High School and we also went downtown and to do some. I had such a fun time doing these. I wanted to share a few of my favorites. I took over 50 pictures so here are just a few to share with you.
We are having his Graduation party on Saturday the 21st. Let's hope it's nice out so we can enjoy being outside. Then his graduation is Sunday. Wow it's so crazy to think he will be out of High School. I will be doing this all again next year b/c my little sister will be graduating in 2012. Holy Moly where did the time go! :)

I will be taking my sister out this summer to do some of her Senior pictures.

So stayed tuned for post on hers!
