Projects For The New House

Home Decorating Projects have been underway at the Yearwood House.
Kaelyn made a headboard for her room (yes, she painted it by herself) to match her zebra theme she has going on.

Creative, No?

And the project for Maddie's room was her desk. After painting it the top was warped and the veneer was not great, so we made a "placemat" to cover the top and Grandpa O got us some plexi-glass - how stinkin cute!

Brian's Maine Trip

Brian had his annual Maine Golf Trip last week and although we were very busy while he was gone, the girls and I really missed him. He came home on Father's Day, so we had some special surprises waiting when he got home. B.Y & Jenna came over and we all played a game of "cornhole" outside together. It was a nice day and we are really glad our BRi BRI is home.

Maddie's 1st "broken" bone

Friday June 17 after getting to work 2 hours late because of Kaelyn's graduation.... I got a phone call at 1pm (1 hour 45 minutes after getting to work) from the school nurse saying Maddie was injured in gym, and maybe you should take her for xrays. So off to the ER we went.

In the triage room Maddie politley told the nurse she belived it was sprained and not broken... the nurse appreciated her medical opinion.

Rainy came to sit with us.... the nurse in her couldn't let Maddie be at the ER without her! (plus she really likes us)

Yup! Sure looks swollen!

The outcome was "treated as a fracture, follow up with Ortho". A soft cast for 10 days and out we went.

POOR BABY!

Graduation

On Friday, June 17th Kaelyn had her "Moving Up Ceremony". This is a full-fledged graduation ceremony honoring the kids graduating from the Elementary school to the Middle school. They had guest speakers and awards (Kaelyn won 3 out of 5 possible) and they even had to walk up and receive their dipoloma! So sweet. Many family members couldn't make it, so I video taped it so we can all watch together at a party this weekend.

Look at that pretty girl!!!

Fun at our New Home!

We are happy to report we are finally starting to feel settled in the new home. The girls are loving life, and really taking advantage of the private outdoors we have now. Yesterday I surprised them with water balloons... They played outside for hours with them.

PERFECTION!! OF COURSE!

This weekend Kaelyn was one of a select few children from her school who was asked to perform at NYSSMA (New York State School Music Association). The students were to play their instruments for judges who would critique them on a scale of 0-28, 28 being the best.
KAELYN GOT A PERFECT SCORE! We are very proud of her.
