Last Thursday as Greg and I were headed to the High School Awards Ceremony, Greg commented that this was the 3rd time in 3 weeks he had to get all dressed up for a school function. First was the tennis awards dinner, then National Honor Society induction, and now the awards night. We made him dress up and I have to say that I wish more parents would have done the same. About half of the award recipients were dressed in jeans or shorts and sandals. I don't get it. Your child is being honored for something and they look like they just rolled out of bed. Honestly I don't think Greg was too upset about getting cleaned up.
Last year, he got the President's Award for being on honor roll and not having any disciplinary infractions. He didn't received any other awards even though he had the top grades in most of his classes. This year he received the President's Award and the Spanish award for the top male 10th grade Spanish student. He was happy about that.
The basement waterproofing project is complete, but now we have the mess to clean up in the basement. It is a slow job but definitely worth it to have a dry clean basement. I'm still having coughing problems due to a cold and the inhalation of concrete dust.
Got to love this picture of Crosby watching the French Open. She got right up to the tv and was watching the news ticker on MSNBC. When we switched the channels she started watching the tennis ball. Today was Sydney and Crosby's vet visit to have their stitches removed. Yea!!
Casey is home next weekend. Can't wait to see her even if it is only for a short visit before she goes back to school.
