Yikes it's been awhile

 Yikes, it's been a while since I last posted anything.  Life has been busy.  
The last of my children has graduated from high school.


We started a busy week off with double ceremonies 
Eric participated in a program through Lane School District and St. Vincent DePaul, (Hope Factory), where he learned trade skills specifically for building tiny homes for low-income families.

For the second ceremony of the night, we headed to JCHS for a senior dessert, where Eric received his cords and certificates. (Goldenrod-honor society, White-GPA 3.5+, Gold+silver-CTE "career trade education)
Spirit of a Champion and the Presidential Academic Award.

Love this guy and so proud of him.  Already has a full-time job working on Cabinetry for Marathon Coach 

After all the craziness of graduation, I escaped to the coast with my girlfriend to camp

sweet little spot in the Oregon National Sand Dunes/Siuslaw National Forest

Gourmet lunch of fire-grilled and smoked baby bells, salami, and crackers

Tami and I at Waxmyrtle Beach.


The adventures continue next week with a scout camp at Camp Baker.  After that, I plan to post regularly as I'm back on the design team with Lasting Memories, starting in July.


Hope you are enjoying your summer as much as I am.
