Graduation

Graduation was held on June 11th at DAR COnstitution Hall in Washington DC. I can't believe that I graduated from the same venue 25 years earlier. I have to say I thought I was going to be more emotion at graduation. I did start to cry when they graduates started marching in and then again when Ryan's name was called. But for the most part the ceremony was long with over 400 names to read, several speeches and then the orchestra's playing. Ryan, congratulations. We love you and are so proud of you.

Tom's Run

What a race.....Well not really a race. It's a 200 mile run from Cumberland Maryland to Rockville Maryland. The team runs 24 hours straight with each team member taking a different time. While someone was running another team member was biking along side. Both Mike and Ryan had a blast. I know Ryan's first 10 mile leg was at 3 in the morning and then again in the afternoo. Both Mike and ryan ran about 25 to 30 miles of the run plus ride the bike for aobut the same amount of miles. They are looking forward to next years run.

Memorial Day

Patrick's cadet unit had the honor of marching in the Memorial Day Parade in Washington DC. It super hot outside and they had to wait around a while before it was their time to line up...but well worth it. Patrick is somewhere in the pack. But very impressed watching all of them march in sync.
