Put the pictures away! It's the 15th!

***Is anyone else having trouble with getting comments?*****

We can put away the pictures because after today my sweet husband will be back to a normal schedule!  This is sort of an old picture, but one I love!  Look how little Jack was then!

Traditionally, CPA offices are closed the 16th.....it's because they're in a coma!  No, actually it is very hard for Russell to slow down.  When you've been working nonstop for 4 months, there is an adjustment period to get back to working only 10 hours a day!  :)

We usually take a small vacation shortly after the 15th, but this year we'll be getting the motor home ready to go down to Matt's graduation!  We are so excited about his graduation!  It seems like only yesterday he was a small child playing monopoly with a very tired dog on his head

and now he's a man.  WITH A JOB!!!!!

Yes, he got the call from the place he wants to work that they have a position for him.  Even better, he'll be working here in our town!  That means that our nest will once again have a chick, at least until he saves enough money to get his own place.

Here he is at his coating ceremony a few years back. 

We are so proud of Matt!  He, with the help of our Lord, has overcome considerable obstacles to get to this point.  Matt has Nystagmus, which means his eyes move horizontally constantly and are never still.  This in turn affects his vision.  There are many breaks he could have gotten through his school years, but he was always treated as if he had no problems and so he finished school like everybody else with no special helps!

Matt's a funny, dependable man, it's hard to say that but heIS a man now,  with his daddy's work ethic.  He has worked every break he's had from school.  Of course, that's partly to finance his desire to have the latest in electronic gadgets!

Anyhow, that will be our vacation this year and we can't wait!

Congratulations, Dr. Jinks!
