Bird

Bird did it, she graduated. This was after, in the field house, with a thousand or so other peops, with all of us sweating to death. So I will tell ya cuz I am sure Bird won't that the ropes she has on means she graduated with honors (you probs all knew that) but I am guessin youdidn't know that she graduated with a 3.8 I was pretty impressed. Did anyone else graduate with a GPA higher than that in our fam? So good work to Bird. She looked real cute.
So this is Bird right after they said her name. Each person would come to this spot after they said their name and do some pose or something. Well Bird decided to shimmy, yes shimmy. It was pretty stinkin funny. We were taking pictures so it was through our camera's that we saw her doing it, and all of were like, did she just shimmy. NIce. Any ways, it was pretty funny.

Bird at State track. Here she is jumpin over the bar for high jump. It was fun havin her there and getting to watch her, even if she didn't do as good as she wanted. PLus, state track was always the bomb, cuz you mostly just get to play.
Bird runnin to jump over the bar.
I also wanted to tell everyone about Bird. So I don't know if you guys heard about their "Senior Day". Well at it they did a bunch of activities that were supposed to bring them closer and then at the end of it, they all sat in a circle and it was like an open mic/testimony meeting (not really testimony but i am guessin that is what it was mostly like). Any ways, at this open mic then I guess A LOT of people got up and told Bird how much of a difference she had made in their lives and how she was so nice. Peops after peops got up and said this to her. Everyone was bawling and especially Bird, who happened to be sitting where the mic was, so they all got up and then would be saying it right to her face pretty much cuz she was sitting right there. I thought it was pretty dang cool. Peops that Bird never really talked too got up and said stuff like "Jamie you said hi to me when we were sophomores and I have never forgotten it". So then I was looking at Birds yearbook and started reading all the stuff that peops wrote,which Bird knew I was doing and didn't care (I remember not wanting to let anyone see what peops wrote in mine and some of you guys doing the same) and every single person in there wrote something about how Bird has influenced their life, or how she is such an example to them or that she made a difference in their life, or what an awesome personality she has, how positive she is, how funny she is, how nice she is to everyone, and tons of peops commented on how they will never forget senior day and how everyone went and around and thanked her or said something to her. Even all the boys wrote about this kind of stuff, which I thought was pretty cool because it seems like boys don't usually say that kind of stuff to girls. Well I just wanted to let you all know that stuff about Bird because I think its awesome and I think that she is a great example. I wish I could look back at High School and know that people thought that kind of stuff about me and know that that is how they were going to remember me by. They didn't just only they that stuff, they also told her how cute and pretty and beautiful she is, how funny she is how she is one of their favorite people (some peops said in their top 25 lists of fav/funny people) and stuff like that, even boys said all this stuff. So Bird, good work, you are an awesome example and I look up to you lots and I just wanted you to know that and all of you other peops to know that we have a sister that people think that about, because I think its awesome. I love ya Bird.

  1. We love you too Bird. Plus, your graduation announcements are beautiful. Really. So, I guess you're the coolest after all and all this time I thought it was Case and Cin or mabes it was Cin and Jean or now I remember, it was me and Ang. Really though Bird, that's cool. Thanks for being such a great example to me!

  2. Hol it is a good thing you included me in that coolest sentence. I was starting to get testy, and then at last, there it was. I can't believe there is only one comment on that SPECTACULAR post. Bird, you are the bomb, and we are lucky to have you in our family. Sometimes people hug now, and not even forced by their husbands. I'm glad you shimmied, did Grandma come? Hopefully no heart attack there. How many in your graduating class Bird? Plus that track picture, you sure look like a small little thing compared to all that equipment, or mabes it just cuz you didn't jump very high. Haha. We love you too Birdlettie. You always make us laugh and for some reason we just can't get enough of you. From my whole fam
