Graduation Day

Matthew graduated from high school this weekend. We traveled to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio to watch the 660+ graduates receive their diplomas. I have to give the administration credit...they accomplished all of that in a little less than two hours~very impressive! The class valedictorian was only 16 and graduated with a GPA of 5.01 (no, that is not a typo). That young man is going to Yale~go figure. The salutatorian had a GPA of 4.75~again that is not a typo.

The day turned out beautiful and we had family and a few very close friends over for an open house. It was such a great day and we all enjoyed ourselves so much. Family, friends food~it was great! We ended the day sitting on our deck with our neighbors saluting Matthew and all of his accomplishments.

Matthew leaves for Case Western in August. He is also working this summer~this is the first summer that he has not had any outside (school) commitments (band/summer school). Here's to a great summer for Matt.

We are all looking forward to our family vacation. This will be the first vacation in many years that we will not travel to China and add to our family ;-). We are all looking forward to heading to the beach, especially Elise.
