the rest of the story...I mean, the trip

I'll make the commentary concise because I just spent forever messing with the pictures.

Little Robby experimented with my camera's color settings. Very artsy. I like the Cheerios box.

Why do I have so many of Robby and me and none of Robby and Sharon? The kidlets had my camera...that must be it.

Kind of random, I know, but they were cute.










This video and the next one were requested. James and Matthew wanted me to record their songs and share them in blogland. Sorry they're sideways. I gotta stop doing that.

graduation day

Blogger's been acting up, but here's my first installment of pictures. I had so much fun hanging out with M&D, R&S and A&D last weekend. Dad, you should have stayed longer. R&S took me straight to the stadium when I arrived and graduation was quite the event. We were there for about 7 hours.

The stadium was almost full.









Mom and I braved the 100-degree weather by standing in the shade for a while. We were on the sunny side of the stadium but Dad stayed in the stands the whole time. When I asked him if he was okay he said "I'm a Crane."







The new American university?








The stand where we saw performances from some groups best left unmentioned. The happy result was that Alice Cooper's performance inspired a viewing of "Mr. Monk and the Garbage Strike," an episode featuring an appearance by none other than Alice Cooper.



Laaa da-da-da daaa daaaaa..... (that's Pomp and Circumstance)








This is when we started getting bored. I'm about to switch positions. I'll let Andra and Sharon give details if they want. :)
