May-madness is almost over... the end of the hustle is SOOOO close!
In the past week...
- Zane played in the Black and White game. He played center for the whole game. He was consistent and reliable and steady. He's not flashy, but he is a really good football player. I really do love watching him play.
- Visited with Sharon and Karen who came down to visit from Ohio for the festivities
- Held Quinn's graduation party where we entertained a LOT of people. My heart is truly so happy to see all the friends and family who came to wish Quinn well. He's just such a good, likeable dude. Celebrating him was fun - and easy! - and also a little exhausting!
- More dinner party fun with Berber and Pappy and Jess and her family to celebrate the graduates!
- Actual graduation ceremony on Sunday and dinner (out again... who wants to cook in May???)
- Then we found out on Monday that Zane made the football team - woohoo! I'm so happy for him - and he's SO excited about it!!
- Tuesday happened to be our 25th wedding anniversary - and we used it as an opportunity to visit one of our favorite restaurants with some great friends
- Wednesday we had a football meeting for all the players and families that made the team to pay dues and get fitted for gear and such. We also found out that Zane will get to continue the tradition of a Bovenizer wearing #59. The coaches know and remember Spencer - and asked if Zane wanted to be the same number. I love that so much.
- And then here we are back to Thursday - the last day of the 2021-22 school year.
I would say we are doing a pretty darn good job of filling our days up with fun stuff! This doesn't mean we aren't simultaneously saddened by the tragedy of the Texas school shooting. That evil weighs heavy - but is also a good reminder not to take any of these crazy, jam-packed, family-centered days for granted. You just never know...
Tomorrow we will try to get through the last workday before heading to the Carolina coast for vacation. I can't wait!
