too far behind

Is it possible to get so behind on your blog that you can't catch up? That's how I feel lately. There's just too much to post and some stuff I'd like to blog about, but feel like too much time has passed that it doesn't matter so much anymore. But I can't just let stuff go like that ... so here's my list attempt to catch up. Hopefully, then I won't be so overwhelmed by my blog!

• Pictures from Easter ... see, I told you I was behind! Dominic's family came down for the weekend and we had a great time. It was practically picture-less which is why I haven't put them up on the blog yet. It's hard to get pictures once babies start crawling and getting into everything!!

• I took a Wilton cake decorating class in April/May with some girls from our small group. It was at Hobby Lobby and really fun. It was the first of 4 courses they offer and I'd like to take some of the other classes in the future, but decided I should prove to myself that I'll actually use my skills first. We made cakes for the classes and I've sense make a couple other cakes, namely a TU cake for Danielle's graduation. Pictures of my cakes here:

• I'm planning my 10 year reunion. Eeek. It's the weekend of 26-27 June and I'm excited, but a little concerned that not many classmates have rsvp'd. So, if you are a BK class of 99 graduate reading this blog who has not sent in your reply form, do it soon!
  
• Dominic's grandma (his mom's mom) passed away in May. It all happened very unexpectedly and quickly and she will be greatly missed. She was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and so much more. Dominic was able to make it back to South Dakota for the funeral. We were blessed to have seen her last back in February when Dominic's parents and grandparents came down. Here's a picture of Juliet with her Great Grandma and Grandpa Turbak.

• Juliet had her Baby Dedication at church on Mother's Day weekend. This went entirely undocumented. ooops. It was the day I found out I was pregnant in fact! It was kind of fun to dedicate both babies :)
  
• We have another nephew!!! Dominic's sister Allison had her second baby boy, Winston James, on May 10. We haven't met him officially yet, but look forward to getting to love on him over the 4th of July weekend!

Here's the entire family. Too cute!:

• My three sisters all graduated during the month of May - Danielle from college, Diane from high school, and Debra from the K-8 school we all went to. Here we are at Danielle's graduation party ... looking our best I might add :)

• And last but not least, our house is on the market. We decided that everything else that's already going on in our lives just wasn't enough so we'd just add something else just for the fun of it! And let me tell you, selling your house is nothing but FUN. Nothing like trying to keep your house clean 24x7 with a one year old right behind you undoing everything as you do it. The girl can clear shelves REALLY well :) We're staying in Tulsa, just looking for a house with a 4th bedroom and a bigger yard.

Well, I'm sure that's not everything, but I'm feeling better so I guess that's a good thing!

PS - I wrote this post last week and never posted it. Genius I know ... I'll never catch up if I don't actually post my posts! Anyways, there's lots more to blog about - including Juliet's BIRTHDAY - so stay tuned :)
