I'm back! :)

Classic Lauralai Allison message:

"I sense a disturbance in the Force. You haven't blogged in forever. But you also haven't announced that you're not blogging. I do not know what to make of any of this. Please alert me if I should be concerned or bring you a casserole."

=)

All is well - I'm just busy with trying to finish up school, and haven't felt compelled to write or like I have much interesting to say lately... it'll pass, I'm quite certain. lol

For now, here's a few fun pictures - mostly of my adorable nephews:

Love this one of Jace playing a game with Mom and Rach!!  Such a good smile! :)

 He loves his Blue Bell ice cream... and his Grandad!

 Haha, love this!!  He was worried about getting in trouble for biting it.

He loved playing in these big blue flower pots in Mom and Dad's backyard!  So cute!

Summer fun - Parrish Fam swimming at JB's pool (I went to a class thing at SNU, not realizing that "dinner" would be served at 4:30 and everyone would leave JB's by 6:00 - sad - fortunately, Mom has a nice camera now too and got several good pics)! :)

Rach will regret wearing the big earrings someday soon when he reeeally grabs hold. lol  I do love her colorful headband in this pic (made from the fabric in Kyndal's nursery room)!

 T-man and Carter hangin out by the hot tub... no watermelon this time, but still a great pic!  And Emily and Jace playing in the background. :)

The name sign we made for Kyndal's nursery... I wrote and "swirled" it, then Rach spent the rest of the day gluing tiny little Swarovski crystals one by one to cover every flower on the board!  And apparently, because she's crazy insane - lol, she's now gluing two rows for a border and going over every letter and swirl - so it'll be completely covered in them... gracious!  That should keep her busy till Kyndal's born! lol

Me making signs for Chet and Karli's wedding (Mom came down to Tulsa to help, and was smart enough to bring gloves so I could avoid splinters)! lol  

The wood was rough and made the project much harder than expected, but they all turned out pretty cute!

And now, it's time for bed.   I can't even handle the cute fluffiness of this Boo photo. :)

I was up till 4am writing my Practicum Paper Thursday... slept till noon on Friday, then stayed up till 3am making signs with Mom... then slept till 9 today.  All that to say, my sleep schedule is all thrown off and I'm worn out!  But a real break is coming soon, because my LAST CLASS is Monday night!!  Get excited! =D

P.S.  A very Happy Father's Day to my Dad, Grandad, and Josh tomorrow!!  
Love this commercial!
