Paul Jr and Tim Jr's Graduation Weekend

Paul here ...
This month of May both Paul Jr and Timothy graduated with their Masters Degrees in separate ceremonies, Paul Jr. on May 10th and Timothy on May 16th. On the weekend of the 10th our whole family, minus the Okinawa contingent, met up in Boone at a condo to celebrate the event.

All our family was present except our Jackie, Tim and the three grand children who have been assigned to Okinawa for the next 3 years. The Stewart's, Paul Jr's inlaws, also joined us for the weekend.

This is an historic event in that in December 2004 both boys graduated together with their Bachelors degrees and now they do it again with their Masters.

Here is a link to my blog where some photos and video are posted.

Race for the Cure



Today we did the race for the cure breast cancer walk for my brother's wife Nolana. It was amazing to see all the suvivors. Nolana raised $2540.00 for the cause by herself, she placed fifth in Sacramento!!! She made the walk with us 1 1/2 weeks off of chemo... heres a picture of her (number 1845 on her chest) with the other 0-1 year suvivors, and us as a group.
