Adorable Niece Learns New Trick

Natalie has learned to roll over! No action shots, unfortunately, but here she is, looking drooly and victorious, having just completed the feat.

I GRADUATE on Saturday! It is going to be such a great weekend. My in-laws are visiting, and bringing a bunch of hostas and day-lillies, and are even going to help me plop them in the ground. I am so excited, and have been lurping around the yard all week figuring out where I will put them. I have also hired a handful of neighbor kids to stop by after school tomorrow to help me weed. Mom, dad, my grandparents, Kate, and The Adorable One are coming down, Sarah is flying in from Arizona, and Greta is cruising over all the way from Como Ave. The ceremony is on Saturday. I ironed my gown and tried on my funny hat and am basically all set.

Oh! And in case you didn't get an e-mail invite, we are having a little soiree at our place Saturday night, stop by if you are looking for some entertainment...
