KSV Reunion

It was time for our annual family reunion at the lake. We had a great time this year. We played horse shoes, golfed, and some played volleyball. My cousin Timmy brought down a big slide with a water gun the kids played all day on that. We had a great auction this year also. Every year we have a lot of great memories, from funny things happening, and just time being together. Can not wait unitl next year. Mike playing horseshoes.

VCOM Graduation

While Mike was at rehearsal I took the kids to the duck pond one last time. When we first moved there, our neighbor Nancy took Abby and I there. Abby and I would go there every once in a while to have a picnic and feed the ducks. When Mike was done with everything we went to the school picnic. We had a great time with all of our friends.

The next day was graduation it was very hot. I think that this was the hottest day we were there. The air conditioning was out where Mike graduated, so it was very hot and stuffy in there. The President of the school was very funny and added a little comment to everyone that graduated. When graduation was over we went out to eat at Chatue Morriset for dinner. Their air conditioning was out also, it was very hot in there too. All in all we had a great time and proud of Mike for his graduation.

Salem and Roanoke

We woke up this morning and went to Salem and Roanoke to do some sight seeing. We stoped in Salem and went to a couple of stores that we used to go to and look around. We then went on to Roanoke to the farmers market and all the little shops that were around there. We then came back to the hotel and rested, before we went to the class party. We took the kids to the school, because they had daycare there. The kids had a great time. We went to Cabo a restaurant in Blacksburg. We had a great time visiting with our old friends. We all go to catch up, before we have to leave and go to other states. Abby sitting in the hand downtown Roanoke.

We made it

We made it Virginia about 11:00 am this morning. We went by our old house that we rented, it still looks the same, and it seems the same people live there. We also went by our friends Larry and Gina's house to see all the work that they put into, since it is for sale. They are moving to California. We went to Mike's school so he could do his exit interview, and get his regalia. He also had to have his picture taken in his regalia. He looked so different with everything on. He is getting so excited, and so are we. I think we are going to go to Salem and Roanoke tomorrow, and see some sights.
