A Wednesday Full of Activities

Today was filled with things to do! I spent several hours this morning working on invitations and trying to get our scanner to work. I never did, but got the job done using other methods.

Sarah had their class photo this morning and then the seniors were released for lunch and senior tea for girls and a guest and the boys went golfing after lunch. I took Sarah to Applebee's and then we went to the tea. It was ok. I can't believe that she only has 7 days of high school left. Sarah's team won their softball game and Sarah played well and is very happy.

Mary had cello lesson at five. It looks like we will have only 3 lessons left for the year. With gas prices and summer events, Mary is taking the summer off. Cello lessons are ~15 miles away. That's 30 miles a week. Gas prices here are $3.98 per gallon. We will see how next year pans out. It is sure to be busy with drama, show choir and orchestra. Mary is driving more and more and is getting good experiences and doing pretty well. Tomorrow she and Sarah will be in the HS Choir concert. I am looking forward to it!

Matthew sang in the middle school concert and did a great job! He had a little solo part in the song "Blue Skies". He was wonderful.Matt looked calm and relaxed and sang with confidence. We are so proud of him. Tomorrow he has a baseball game at 6 pm. We will watch him for a while then attend the girls concert at 8:15pm (there are two performances of the HS Choir concert).

Jeff and I signed up for a golf outing in June with our friends. I hope that it will be a best ball scramble. I work tomorrow and Friday at 0515. I work 3 hours on Thu and 12 on Friday, Mary's birthday. Jeff and Matt leave for Mackinac on Fri morning for an overnight. Mary and I,and maybe Sarah will go to the Dirty Dozen Band Concert at the HS. It is supposed to be awesome. Then a few friends are coming over to bake a birthday cake. We try to squeeze as much as possible into one day! Sweet Sixteen-how time flies! I will need Saturday to prepare for the party here on Sunday afternoon. Hope the weather warms up by then. Cold weather for the season is back.

Well, better get some shut eye..
