Unfortunately even tho this place has wonderfully comfortable seats, they kept the lights down as if there was a concert and all the pictures came out dark and hard to see. Plus each student was only allowed eight tickets which was a bummer that other family members weren't able to attend. As most of you know we have a rather large support group when it comes to family accomplishments (not to mention very vocal) so it was a shame they couldn't be there for Anissa. And because things were very hectic in the hours before (lets just say our girl earned her "Most Dramatic Award) and after the event some how everyone missed getting a picture of Anissa by herself in her cap and gown.
I do have one picture as she was standing to move to the stage.
She's hard to see but she is the last one in line.
Anissa with mom Brandi
And one of the family

Congratulations Anissa, your one beautiful special young woman and Grandpa and I are so proud of you.
So as for the rest of the week. We had a very warm (I won't call it hot) Memorial Day here. Temp's in the 90's and a sunny day. Two days later we were back in sweat shirts and the heat turned on. It got down in the 30's one night and a cold rainy day followed.
I was suppose to have a yard sale here last Friday but with a high of 50 we canceled it and hopefully this Friday will be better. One of the nice things about advertising on Craigslist is being able to post the last minute.
Other than that the week was pretty calm and basically staying inside to keep warm. I did get upstairs and started going thru all the tubs that have been in storage for the last six years. We need to get things sorted and moved into a walk in storage room up there (sounds better than it is, just a room off the bedroom that was added over the kitchen) so I can start working on painting the two bedrooms up there. One we'll finish as a grandkids/guest room and the other will be set up as a train room. Larry still has his Lionel Train set and he has always wanted to set the track up with villages etc. This will be a good project for him and Darrius over the next few years.
Now that Graduation is over we're on to finish the final plans for the Open House in two weeks. Hope for good weather because it's being held at a city park.
Puppy note: Renee' and Brian came up from Ohio for the graduation and they brought along their dog Devon. Pepper was so excited to have another puppy to play with but alas Devon is a bit finicky and doesn't do the "play" thing. We took them out in the back yard and was able to get a picture of them.
That's it for this week. Till next time...............................

Pepper tried to play keep away but Devon just wasn't having anything to do with it.
Not sure what they were looking at but it entertained them both
