As the June assignment for One Little Word, Ali asked us to get creative with a page of cards. But for me, with my word "FOCUS" June was focused on family and friends. Creative never quite happened, so I don't have a page to share. I'm hoping to get one done today or tomorrow... maybe... and I'll post it if I do... Instead, what I have to share today is how FOCUS on Family and Friends played out in June...
We started with a Prom.
Then a Graduation:
We followed with a high speed round of interviews, a trip for Sarah to Washington D.C., and an on-the-spot offer and acceptance of a job! Sarah will be working for NAFSA beginning August 6th. We have very little time to find her an apartment and get her moved!
We ended the month with a Graduation Party:
We had lots of family.
We had lots of desserts!
The girls had lots of friends attending as well, but they came and went in small groups throughout the day, so I don't have a representative shot until I have time to make a collage.
All in all, it was a crazy busy hectic whirlwind month. I'm exhausted but happy. FOCUS on family and friends was a huge success. Would love to say I can relax now, but July and August are already shaping up to be just as frenetic!

Such a great look back at the month Cheri. Loved all the family shots!
Congrats to Sarah on her new job! Love that badminton shot. Looks like you guys had a great time together. Unrelated, I love the new (?) look of your blog.
A busy family month,Cheri...and many congrats to Sarah....hope you find her the perfect apartment.
What a great recap of a busy and important month. Your focus was definitely in the right place! And I'm loving the new look of your blog! Feels good to shake things up a bit, doesn't it? :)
LOL! Glad that I am not the only one with a crazy June! Congrats on surviving graduation! (mine is only going to be a freshman in HS and I thought that we were making a big leap!). Enjoy and focus on that family! -Amanda :)
How fun to see such family and friends focused times - Princess's prom was much more low key and required nothing from me thankfully. Your party looked fun tho'!
What a wonderful set of images to showcase your word!
Congratulations on your graduations. Two together. How fun. A great thing to focus on.
It certainly was a busy month for you! I think it's so important sometime to focus on family because the time really does fly by. Hope you find some creative time in July!
What a fun month! It's so exciting to think about the beginning of a whole new phase of life after graduating from high school.
