On Saturday night I decided that it would be a good idea to jump in the car the next day and drive to Oroville California with Erica and her kids. It was graduation week for my twin siblings, Shannon and Sean, so I wanted to be there for that. The Tracie and John wedding was also less than 2 weeks out so I wanted to help prepare for that … and that is exactly what I did. We spent a week at my mom and dad’s house and I had a great time with my parents and siblings that were home. It was especially nice to spend some one on one time with the youngest 3 –  Shannon, Sean, and Kelsey, since I haven’t lived at home fo rthe past 10 years its fun to see them grown up and getting their own personalities.

The Graduates: Las Plumas Class of 2008. Shannon was Co-class President and MC at the graduation. Sean was Top Ten in his class. Congratulations guys! We Loved Being There for it.

Packer spent most of his time right here on Grandma’s front porch. His cousins Payton and Carter joined him often. He was entertained by Triskit the Mouse, The Flying Pig, and the flowers. He also decided that if anyone left the house then he wanted to leave also. This made it tough because someone was always leaving, needless to say he learned to throw some good fits.

Benji’s favorite part was going in the Hot Tub. We used it like a swimming pool and Benji did some of his best swimming. He would see his cousins do some cool jumps and back flops and would follow right along with them. Good swimming Benj!
