Movie Night

Took a couple of the grandkids to the Starlight Drive Inn last night for a movie night.  Had the normal sodas and popcorn and candy.  We stationed ourselves outside next to the truck while the boys made a makeshift bed/sitting area in the bed of the truck.  Michael has a tool chest in the back of the truck so they propped themselves on it and it made a great chair for watching the movies.  We saw Men in Black III and Dark Shadows.  Men in Black III was great.. Dark Shadows was different.  It was ok but I am glad that I saw it and that it is over with... no need to purchase that one for the DVD collection that I have.

No biopsy today for Michael.  The machine was up but they are trying to "catch up" on the appointments that were cancelled.  Michael actually got to talk with the doctor and he wants more blood tests before he does the biopsy.  They scheduled it for July the 27th. 

Found out that my daughter graduates on July 21st from Ball State University.  She has gone for the past five years.  She has done a wonderful job and will graduate with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Metal Sculpture.  I think that we will be able to watch her walk and accept her diploma.  She promised her dad that she would walk to accept it so who am I to not be there to watch her accomplish that.  She graduated in 2006 and had a 6th grade reading level and the comprehension was worse but she made it through her classes.  I am so proud of her.  The governments program "No child left behind" really didn't work for her.  They left her behind long before she reached high school. 


Ava Mae (my granddaughter) will be two in July and her mom asked if I could make the cupcakes for her party.  Told her that I would.. The theme is Bubble Guppies... It is a cartoon on Nickelodeon.  Watched the program on Thursday and OMG it is so out there.. but she loves it.  So we will go along with that.  Her dad told Michael that he couldn't get her a pony for her birthday... He was real adamate about that. 

Hope all is well down in Terlingua... haven't heard from anybody for awhile other than John Wells (www.thefieldlab.blogspot.com). 

Take care and God Bless...
