Last weekend, Paul and I (and Savannah) drove up to North Carolina to watch my sister get her diploma! I can’t believe she’s a college graduate now! I’m so proud of her, and I hope she’s able to find a job soon doing what she loves. Her major was outdoor education, so she’s looking at camps and other outdoorsy type jobs.

I set up some posts to auto-post while we were gone, just in…

I didn’t do much blog-reading while I was gone, so I had fun this evening trying to catch up. I recently took all the blogs out of my Google Reader and have been checking them through bookmarks on my computer in my…
