how...

I just want to know when this happened? When did she start looking like this? Amazing that she is turning into this beautiful young woman. Chelsea had a 9th grade formal dance to attend over the weekend. Absolutely the one dance she has been waiting for. We bought this dress during the summer last year for cheap just for this event. Her friends got together beforehand for a dinner and then headed to the dance together. I understnad that she had at a few admirers that evening. She loved it! ha ha ha

Paul is slowly getting ready for his trip. He leaves on Friday and will be gone just over two weeks. I'm just a little jealous ;) But I guess my late nights and crappy dinners will have to keep me satisfied while he's gone. Hoping for lots of pictures when he gets back :)

The girls are finally seeing the light at the end of the school tunnel. Chantel will be done this week while the other girls will be done next week. 9th grade graduation, dance festivals, author's fair and other activities will be taking up time for me as well as them. I think that Chantel has just a test or two to take and the other girls have informed me that they have no more homework. Dang! Gotta find more to keep them busy...
