I have to say that Morgan's prom pictures are just fabulous--she and Todd look like they stepped out of the pages of a magazine. I hope it was a wonderful evening for them!<br /><br />Congrats to making it to another summer vacation--I know it will be so nice for all of you to be in the more laid-back summer routine. I hope Morgan gets all the extra job hours she needs. <br /><br />I can't believe Jai is 8 years old either--what a sweet girl she is--that was quite a birthday dessert,no wonder she couldn't finish it!<br /><br />What an incredible trip to Europe Morgan is going to have. You are so good to step up as the organizer for fund raisers. I think it's a great idea--practical and realistic for Morgan to have to earn money, have fundraisers, and save for this big trip. She will appreciate it all the more!<br /><br />Hope your summer is off to a terrific start girl!Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05757301438009300674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076408572355312115.post-32772788843012234122009-06-16T05:18:13.241-05:002009-06-16T05:18:13.241-05:00How exciting!!

The good thing is, Morgan is showing you guys that she wants to go & willing to work for it (that's hard to say about most kids!). <br /><br />Please keep us updated!!!<br /><br />Have a blessed day!!~Lisi P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00739120494542461219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7076408572355312115.post-22056284760843700882009-06-15T13:30:50.601-05:002009-06-15T13:30:50.601-05:00How exciting Daphine!
