John received a lot of graduation gifts as evidenced by this stack of cards. Everything is recorded on a list, and we will get started on thank you cards soon.
Graduation Cards
Cat TV
Jim LOVES Cat TV on YouTube.
Whenever we turn it on, he hears the sounds and immediately comes running.
It is hysterical watching his reactions!
Hat
I sent Andy a picture of this hat today and asked if he wanted me to get it for him. It was only $1.50 at Dollar Tree. I cannot imagine why he said no…
Mountain Soap
This year, I want to give everyone who goes to Copper Triangle with us a soap inspired by the mountains. Enter a mountain-shaped cookie cutter found on Amazon. The first attempt turned out well and gave me a couple of ideas for slight modifications to make it easier next time.
Goofball
Strep Throat
Laura’s throat started to hurt yesterday afternoon. By late evening, it was clear that she was sick. It got worse overnight, so I took her to Mizzou Quick Care this morning. She has strep throat, and it took her down fast. Hopefully, the antibiotic will get her back on her feet quickly.
Gold Star Parade
The kids participated in the Gold Star Memorial Day Parade today. Laura carried the banner for Sterling Wyatt, who was an Eagle Scout from Troop 706.
She also participated in the flag ceremony at the Boone County Courthouse.
John marched in the combined high school band.
It was a great way to honor both the families and the service members who died for the freedoms that we all enjoy.
