Update Continued...

At the end of our Spring Break, we headed out to Blacksburg for the Hokie Focus event for accepted students. It was chilly and rainy but we still had a great time. Lily fell in love with it all over again. She was also lucky enough to have her soon to be roommate there for the experience.

Our friends' daughter who is currently a student at Tech. She took us on a tour of her dorm room.

April ushered in some beautiful evenings at the bay.

Dinner at Taste 

Lily attend the pre-dance festivities for her friends who were headed to Ring Dance.

Shelly and I took Fynley on a leisurely walk at the beach.

Lily's good friend in North Carolina, Claudia, asked her to go to prom with her. So, we allowed Lily to pack up her things and drive alone to NC. It was a stressful weekend for me, but a fun one for her!!!

The next big event was Lily's 18th birthday!!! She celebrated at a hibachi grill with friends and then came back to the house for cheesecake, cookie cake, and ice cream.

The next day was Mother's Day and we took John's mom out for breakfast and they gave me sweet gifts, including planting flowers in the planter Kristina gave me for my birthday.

John's sister graduated from Physician Assistant school and we attended her coat ceremony.

As the Senior year was coming to a close, the graduates went to the elementary schools for a Senior Walk. Lily went with several others to Linkhorn Elementary for her walk.

Lily attended her prom at the Hilton with a big group of friends.

Shelly attended an 8th grade celebration that was held on the Spirit of Norfolk. They had a great time on the boat.

Shelly was overjoyed for her last day of middle school! She officially became a high school student on the 15th of June!!!

Still more to come...
