She's a GLEEK

Well, we all successfully made it through the week and my brother is now a high school graduate!  The ceremony was very nice, although I got a wee bit tired of all the different metaphors used to demonstrate what role high school plays in your life.  But the worst part was all of the RUDE family members in attendance!  I thought my dad was going to have a stroke as people just kept acting like they were raised in a barn.  Some people actually talked on their cell phones, as the remained seated in their chairs, while the commencement speech was being given! And it wasn't just one or two people doing that, it was many, AND they didn't even bother to whisper. 

After it was over, my parents told my brother that he could pick any restaurant in the greater Richmond area at which we could eat lunch.  Do you know what he chose?  Any restaurant and he chooses The Olive Garden!  I was like, how can we be related?!  But it was actually pretty good and we had good service, so I can't complain too much.  After lunch we all went back to my parents house and took a nap, haha.  It was a long, exhausting, emotional day and everyone was just zonked.


We haven't done very much today, except for Spencer playing on the Slip-n-Slide for over an hour.  I found one on sale for $9 at CVS!  Worth. Every. Penny.  She calls it her slip slider and keeps asking when we can go slip sliding.  It cracks me up every time she says it!  In other Spencer news, she's officially obsessed with GLEE.  She loves to dance to all the songs, and when they're over, she says "rewind on the remote control!"  Seriously, that's what she says.  And finally, my Spencer turns three years old, one month from today. ahhhh!
