Megan's Grad

Last afternoon and evening I was privilege to be a part of Megan's grad. For those of you who don't know who Megan is, the two of us have been really good friends for a super long time and we are crazy together :).
The ceremony was very long! I felt sorry for all the little kids who had to suffer through the speeches and such. It was neat to see another old friend there too, Anna, whom I had not seen in ages. After the ceremony we had a dinner and a dance. Megan and her friends are such goofs and they certainly made the dance floor so much more interesting!! I finally got to see a lot of Megan's that she has always talked about, but I've never really had a chance to spend time with.
It was a wonderful time and I'm excited for Megan as she is moving on to University of Victoria in the fall to become a Marine Biologist. Way to go girl!

19!

Well dear friends, tis true, I am 19 now! Here are some pictures of the exciting day. Well technically they are a few days after, but this is when we celebrated as a family (plus a few great extras). Mmm Dairy Queen cake!
Look at me! I can't handle the stress of being 19, this is just too much I tell you!!
Linds surprised me by coming for a visit too! It was great to have you girl!
Mommy and Kelsey enjoying the food and of course my company ;)

All in all it was a fantastical day and I am so happy that I could share it with my family!

And now for the Karissa update news...

...a recent announcement has reviled that Karissa Epp's birthday is rapidly approaching. Aging levels are said to increase to 19 this year and the chances of them reducing are zero. Sources say she isn't sure whether or not she is happy about only one more year of teenage hood or not. However she is trilled to be able to be with her family on that special day!
In other news, the forestry work is going well. Today was a great day for finding iron boundary pins. According to the professionals, these small iron stakes can be difficult to find. "There's a white triangle shaped stake often near the iron pin. Sometimes it might be right beside it, other times it might be a few metres away. In any case, you sometimes have to get down on your knees, dig through the grass and the dirt to find in. Other times you just have to bring the metal scanner in and let it do the job. However, more often then not, all's it does is find pieces of wire and such, not usually the pins."
There has been an unusual amount of rain in the Kamloops area over the last week and a bit. Some are wondering if miss Epp brought the bad weather up with her. "I'm sorry it's raining, but there isn't anything I can do about it. Besides, it's good for the grass!"
Some prime visiting time has been happening between Karissa and her dear friend Megan. While house sitting right near Megan's place, Karissa has been able to sneak some quality time in with her before heading back to Kelsey and Brandon's place at the end of the week.
Thanks for tuning in. I'm Wanda Wandasnail. Goodnight.
