Cold Track Meet and Congratulations Erin!

Well, we spent from 5pm tonight through 9pm at a track meet, cheering on our son and teamates in the cold and rain. It was miserable. 40 degrees, rain, windy, absolutely ugly weather. They won the meet, so the kids were happy, but pretty wet! I just hope they don't get sick from being cold, wet and then getting warm while running, to have chills start when they stopped running. My back, legs and shoulders ached from shivering, just standing there watching them. It felt so good to get in our vehicle and turn on the heater! This is such odd weather for May. It is usually in the 60-70s this time of year.

Grammy & Grampy(my parents) picked up the princess after school and took her home with them, which was a huge help. She gets bored at the meets, plus we didn't want her to have to sit through this bad weather. Actually Grampy came to watch the meet, so the princess got Grammy to herself. She had big plans, read a couple of books to Grammy, play with Grammy's hair and work on the computer programs Grammy bought her.

It is graduation time. We have 6 high school graduations in our family and friends, plus my good friend Erin graduates from college tomorrow. I am so very happy for her. Things are so good in her world, she has a job she is great at, a new house and graduating. 2006 has been good for her. She is the type of friend that is more family than "just friend".

I better get moving. I hope you all have a good weekend.
