Graduation!

Last Friday marked a HUGE milestone for Scott (and me)--graduation!  We wanted to share a few pictures that told a bit of the story of our day.  It was gorgeous outside, sunny and warm!  We really had a fabulous day with friends, professors and others that have been part of our journey.

Enjoy...

Blooms and Unprecedented Sun

The last 5 days have been amazing!  The sun has been shining and the temperatures have been rising since Wednesday from 68 degrees to a forecast of 84 today!!  It has been incredible and we know it's completely abnormal.  This is what we typically see late July into mid August.  We've switched into "summer mode" as the windows get opening at daybreak until we start to feel the warmth, then the windows, blinds and doors close to keep in the cool.  We know it isn't going to continue this way through the summer, but we WILL enjoy as much of it as possible!

Natural vitamin D, gotta love it!  The blooms in our little yard are loving it too, take a look:
