She Says: Enjoying the Big Family Love.
I arrived in Rhode Island safe and sound and the gymnastics party was lots of fun!
There was an American Idol cake. It was white and chocolate marble cake.

And cheesy pizza.

After, I went to the mall w/ my mom, dad and sister. On the way home we grabbed Panera where I got the Mediterranean Veggie Sandwich on Wheat and an apple, which after posting the link to, I see is quite caloric!!

Then I graduated. Or rather, my dad gave me my my diploma in the kitchen. I now have three post-high school diplomas. I am thinking about a fourth.

I would apologize for my hair, but it was a long day.
It’s nice to be home for the day today! I’ve been enjoying the cable – Big Love last night! I am going to take advantage of the convenient treadmill in a bit, do some baking for my family and then go to the school where I student taught to visit the kids. My last day of student teaching was cancelled because of a snow storm, so we never got a real good bye. I am excited to see them because I miss them so much! Then it’s back on the road for me!
Have a good Monday morning everyone!





What a nice graduation ceremony
Sure beats any I have been to. My brothers both fell asleep at my law school ceremony.
I love the American Idol cake! I WANT an American Idol cake! and that pizza! mmmmmmmm…..
Aw have a great day and have fun with the kids!
Cool graduation ceremony!
I hope you have a great day visiting the kids!

So fun!!!
Enjoy your day at home!!
You and your dad are too cute!
Have fun with your kids today, I’m sure they’ll be super excited to see you!
Love the graduation!
The cake and pizza brought back childhood memories of kid birthday parties!
Congrats, graduate
Where’s your mortarboard?
I LOVE that panera sandwich. If you do the pick 2 with soup and half a veggie sandwich, it’s actually not that bad calorie-wise.
Have a safe drive!
white and chocolate marble cake? cheesy pizza? and Panera?….they all look soooo good!
I agree with Heather, I don’t think the sammie is that bad calorically or nutritionally… it had some healthy fats in there =P
Wow! that’s pretty awesome all of those degrees
i love talking to people in their professions who had the winding road path. they always have the most interesting perspective.
I think the sandwich is a pretty sensible choice for eating out. Glad you had such a fun time! I make my mom TV some of my former favorite cable shows so I can catch up when I go visit now that I’m cableless.
I miss cake & pizza! but I don’t miss my tummyaches!
Fourth diploma?! What are you thinking of getting it in?
That cake reminds me of when I was a kid I would get the worst blue teeth from that frosting! Of course I loved it though!
Congrats on the degree!!! An american idol cake? What happened to fun disney cakes
Enjoy your day at home!Can’t wait to see what you bake up.
Aw so sweet! Love the cake.
i got the you pick two from panera, and got the med veggie sandwich too
Wow, that is so cool!
American idol cake? Yum! And pizza!
love the cake, you have how mand degrees!!! WOW!
I don’t think the sandwich is bad nutritionally either. I was just kind of surprised when I inserted the link to see the number. I will still eat it probably every time I go to Panera.
Bobbi: 3.
HAHAH American Idol Cake. When Gracie was 2, my dad taught her to say that she wanted a Sanjaya American Idol Party. I was going to make a Ponyhawk Cake. But then I decided not to traumatize her for life and went with Dora instead.
Congratulations on your graduation =)
cake + pizza= quite possibly one of the best combos ever
next to wine and clif bars of course
looks like such a fun weekend!
American Idol marble cake?! Yum yum!
Aw, have fun today visiting with the kiddies. That’s great that you get the chance to go back and have a real farewell
Happy Monday, love.
Congrats on the graduation! All those diplomas are impressive.
Congrats on the diploma!
I haven’t been to Panera in years, I miss it lol.
What do you mean the hair? It’s cute! So is the pic.
Congrats on the 3rd post high school Dimploma
Love the ‘graduation’
I had that sandwich today for lunch and I thought I was doing good. I am so disappointed. At least I didn’t eat their cookies, now they MUST be bad because they taste too good.
Congrats on the diploma. Remember to be proud of all you have accomplished.
I hate when something has really healthy ingredients but can be a lot higher in calories than you’d think. Looks so good though, can’t go wrong w/ Panera. And you look great!
Some of my favorite things……….cheesy pizza and cake
…….how i miss them!
Congrats!
LOVE the pic. we dont get to see enough of your face!
Congratulations! What a fun celebration with the fam–nothing beats a good slice of pizza
Enjoy your time with the family and your students!
You look great and happy in that photo!
I’m surprised the sammie was high in calories as it looks like it’s packed with all greens. Your dad is cute – I loved that chip video when you posted it last. So funny. I’m glad you got to see your kids for an official goodbye. Have a good week Heather!
I love the Mediterranean veggie!
mmm. cheesy pizza and cake! sounds like a good day to me!!
Looks like fun!
whooo.. fun at home in RI! the party looks like it was a blast!
happy grad
cant have too many letters after your name right?
Congrats on another diploma!!
I love marble cake–even had it for my wedding cake.
The Lemonator, who is German, refers to it as “zebrakuchen” which sounds much more exciting.
Erin, You’re right. I look awesome.
