Anna has secured a part time dog sitting job, which allows her time for the pool, but also some time to make some money. The good news for her lately (other than graduating) is that she has qualified for the HOPE scholarship, which is $4,000 per year for college. YAHOO!!
Here is one of the pictures from graduation...
Marian, Max and I went on a short trip to Charlotte, Myrtle Beach and Columbia. (NC and SC) We loved Charlotte, a very cool city and we were able to find free parking and saw a bit of a minor league baseball game there. Then we were off to Myrtle Beach and thoroughly enjoyed the sun and surf there. Beautiful weather and lovely beaches. We chose a not so crowded area and also scored on free parking. Our next day brought us to Columbia SC, which was less than stellar. Coming from a Capitol city area, I must say that the area in Concord, NH was far nicer. We came home via 40 West, only to hit a huge detour that took us 100 miles out of the way! We got home in time for dinner last night.
We are doing last minute American things like showing him all the original Star Wars movies (episodes 4-6) and making his favorites like Rice Krispie treats.
Gabriel was dropped off to Governor's school on Sunday and has been texting us updates. He is having a good time and they gave each of the kids a laptop computer (to keep!). They are taking a field trip to Chattanooga to look at a supercomputer there.
