... that I become the mother of not one, but two adult children!!! Aaahhhh!
OK, enough about me! Today Kenton turns 18 years old. I know! I'm trying not to faint myself! How did this happen??? Well, Kent wanted to go to a sushi buffet... so that's where we all went! The happy group...
Kent and his look-a-like dad... I tried not to look too closely to Kent's food cause I know some of it still had faces... I'm dead serious... GROSS!
Jade Lorraine eating "EEL SUSHI"... seriously! I blame their dad for getting them to eat weird things LOL! I am a very plain picky eater, so I guess it's good that the kids are more adventurous... but seafood that still has eyes on it? And eel sushi? Yuck!
Jade and both her cute grandma's! Grandma Cindy and Grandma Claire...
Out side we have cousins Kent and Kyle... now both 18... "Now that we're men, we can do anything, now that we're men, we can change our underwear"... (sorry, sponge bob reference... don't hate me cause I love sponge bob!)
Josh, Kent, Claire and Jade...
Katie, Kenton, Jade and Jeromy...
My baby... sniff sniff... it's so cliche', but he'll always be my baby... love him so much....
Grandpa Lee, Kenton and Grandma Cindy...
I was making a bet how long it would take Kent to fall asleep on the ride home... didn't take long...
With Kent's birthday loot, he bought himself the new 3DS.... super cool...
OK, the rest of the pictures are just what's been going on the last couple of days. Yesterday, Josh came and got the kids and hung out all afternoon. Kid's had a great time...
I tried a new recipe in my vitamix (did I mention how much I love this machine????) I made my own spaghetti sauce. The family said it was kinda spicy. I did add some extra spice cause I LOVE spicy, but I gotta remember to tone it down for the fam... they did eat it tho, and I was able to freeze a couple of dinners for work next week!
Last night, Jeromy and I were able to go to one of Aurora's baseball games. They are pretty fun to watch. At this age the kids really know what's going on. Aurora's mom is coaching the team, with the assistance of both Aurora's grandparents. That whole family is really into baseball! Look at Aurora's (cute) game face! The 2 people in the foreground are Aurora's grandma and grandpa...
Aurora at bat- don't swing it's no good! And she didn't she's got a good eye...
Look at her getting ready to run from 1st to 2nd...
Look at the determination in her (adorable) face as she runs from 2nd to 3rd...
Tho it did not rain- I want you to know it was frickin' FREEEEEZING! It felt like we were in a wind tunnel the whole time! Glad Jeromy brought a blanket. All the parents on the bleachers were bundled up in big heavy coats... it is mid June right???
And lastly, but not least... do you remember the "Jesus" sign my grandma had for so many years. Many of you do, my cousin Laura posted it on her blog cause she was the lucky one who got it. She remembers it as fondly as I do. Well, one of the things I got from my grandma was a small coffee table. We didn't really need it, and there wasn't anything really special about it except it was my grandma's. Well, Jeromy did something really sweet for Mother's day for me. He took the piece of furniture that we didn't really need, or have a place for and created that same "Jesus" sign that my grandma had out of the wood. It's not identical but it's the same. And it's special cause it was made out of something my grandma had. I LOVE IT!!! Jeromy is the best.
And not only did he make me one, he made Jade one, too! So now we both have one to keep forever... so awesome!
OK... that is all. I have a couple more days to try to chill before Kent's big graduation Friday night, and his party Saturday! Too much fun!
