Whew....what a weekend!

So it is not news to everyone that we have been extremely busy! Well, we topped off the month of May with a trip home to see Amy graduate high school. After a delay in El Paso because of weather in Chicago (surprise surprise surprise) then of course another delay in Chicago...again, surprise, we got into St. Louis almost 3 hours late. We got our rental car and headed up to Greenfield with plenty of time to spare. It was awesome to be there to support Amy and watch her graduate. It was very nostalgic being back in our high school gym. Considering I can't remember the last time I was there and I am even thinking it was at my own graduation. Crazy! Either way, congrats to Amy along with other 2008 graduates!

Of course, going home meant that Gracie was able to meet all of her extended Coonrod and Cunningham families! They were so excited to see her and give her the long awaited hugs. Gracie got a whole new wardrobe from everyone. I am definitely thinking she is going to be the best dressed little girl in daycare! She also got to spend some quality time with Grandma and Grandpa Cunningham. She really enjoyed herself that is for sure. But we are all exhausted! :)

Matt left today for Special Forces training for 2 weeks. We won't be able to talk until the 17th which is ok, being a military family you get used to it! Gracie is already missing her evenings with Daddy. Please keep Matt in your prayers as he goes through the next two weeks.

Well, I am so tired I can't keep my eyes open, which is a good opening for me to apologize for any incoherent ramblings in this blog! :) Until next time...
