 Hey Y'all! Happy Monday! We woke up in Hilton Head this morning!! We are excited about playing golf at Harbour Town! 

I am still playing weekly recap catch up. Today, I am recapping May 11th-May 17th. 

Monday, May 11th- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, coffee and Jesus for me. Ella got to sleep in because this week she only had to go to 3rd and 4th period. I went to Burn at 8:30 and Publix. I got home, did a clean sweep of the house and laundry. 

Ella and Juliet got to the house after school to get ready for their baccalaureate service at our church. 

I got to love on Benny for a few minutes before the ceremony began. 

At their baccalaureate ceremony, they give out roses to anyone who helped make them the person they are today. Ella gave one to me, her dad, her brother, and Kathryn.

After the ceremony, We went to eat at El Real. Got home and all crashed. 

Tuesday, May 12th- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, coffee and Jesus for me, and Ella was able to sleep in a little bit. I got busy cleaning up the craft room, organizing grad stuff, make my grad party to buy list, and my grad party to pack list. Basically I spent my day getting everything together for Ella's grad party :) 

That evening, I finished the banner for the girls dessert table at their party. 

I made tacos for dinner, we ate, I cleaned up the kitchen, showered, relaxed on the couch for a little bit before going to bed. 

Wednesday, May 13th- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, and coffee and Jesus for me. It was SENIOR walk day for Ella. The walk was at 9am. 

After the walk, I ran errands and then went to Ben's office to go to lunch with him. That evening Ian and Kathryn went to the Braves game for her 21st birthday! She got the yard beer. 

Thursday, May 14th- 

Ian had the day off, Ben to the office, coffee and Jesus for me, while the others slept in. I went to my 10am hair appointment and then my nail appointment. 

Ella took Trixie to get a pup cup. 

I worked on more grad stuff. Then finally by 6:30, Trixie and I chilled on the couch. I was exhausted y'all! 

 

Friday, May 15th- 

Ian to work, Ben to the office, coffee and Jesus for me, and then I went to workout at Burn at 8:30. Leigh Anne and I went to breakfast at CFA. Then I ran to Publix and Michael's. I got home and made a crap ton of pasta salad for the graduation party. 

I loaded up my car and we all met at the venue at 4:30 to start setting up for the graduation party. Leigh Anne came to help as well. She was a lifesaver. 

But first look who left the house for her last day of HIGH SCHOOL...

and we got this text from her. 

We got home around 9pm from setting up. 

Saturday, May 16th- 

It's GRAD PARTY DAY! Ella's party is going to get it's own post when we get back from the beach. 

we got home from the party around 4:30ish. Ian, Kathryn, and Ella went to dinner with Kathryn's family and to Duke's and Dottie's in Athens to line dane to celebrate her 21st birthday again. 

While Ben and I went next door for a low country boil for Ashlynn's birthday! 

Everyone got home and we all crashed. 

Sunday, May 17th- 

Boys went to play golf, I watched church online, I got ready and went to lunch at Legend's and then met Ella at Lana's graduation party. Ella had a day of grad parties. 

After Lana's party,  I went to Publix to get stuff for Ian's lunches. I did all the Sunday chores and chilled on the couch before crashing. 

It was another great and busy week. 

I will be back in blog and the week of the 22nd.
