Update

We had a great time in Idaho visiting my parents and my aunt & uncle. We went to the hot springs, ice caves, and Sun Valley. It was nice to be with my family and we also got to visit with some old friends. My mom and dad's best friends, Chuck and Barbara, live behind them. I have known them since I was very young. One of their sons, Kevin, who is close to my age came down from Boise to visit. It was nice to see him and his family. We also had a chance to visit the church that has been praying for Gregg ever since he started this deployment. It was a great church and everyone was so friendly, it reminded me of the church I grew up in, First Baptist in Felton, California. Oh yeah, we bought property, an acre.

Things have been busy here trying to tie up school for the summer. We will continue to do a few things during the summer, reading, a typing course a friend sent a link to(thanks Sue), and a scrap booking project we had started.

Faith will be busy with many camps, our son Elliott will be here all of July...very excited.

If you noticed my weight ticker hasn't really moved it is because I have stale mated. I lose and gain the same few pounds. I have started the hard core stuff again trying to get body to move...keeping my fingers crossed.
I moved Griff's graduation video to the bottom.

Griffin's Graduation & Commissioning

We had a great time the last 10 days. We flew to Portland where we were greeted by Griffin & Elliott at the airport. Went to a really cool restaurant at a place called Kennedy School. They renovated the school into a restaurant/multiple mini-bars and rooms to stay the night. Very interesting atmosphere.

Saturday we attended Griffin's Air force commissioning. He is now a 2d Lt. in the Air force. He will be going to Pensacola, Florida this fall to train as a Navigator. The ceremony was an emotional time to see this young boy turn into a man. Griffin has been goal oriented from day one and I know he will have an amazing career. On Sunday, we went to his graduation ceremony. It was about 3 1/2 hrs long, because of so many graduates and the priests were a little lengthy. I included a picture of Gregg catching a cat nap in the video montage. Gregg's mom, Marcia, was able to attend. How neat it must have been to see her son pinned and then her grandson. The cute little redhead with Griffin at the end is Shannon. We wish her luck in her future endeavors in Med school. We celebrated with a dinner at Ruth's Steak House, the food was wonderful and it was nice to be with family. I only wish Kali & Jesse and Nick could have be there too and that the weather could have been nicer..brr.
