Lots of stuff going on this past weekend...graduation! Our youngest brother, Michael, graduated from Glenvar HS on Friday morning from the Class of 2007. He's the last of the 4 Flores kids to get out of there! Mom and Dad threw a party for him on Thursday night. All the grandparents were there to celebrate. The Szuch family came, too (Carissa did a great video for Michael...check out her company's website: www.mystudio11.com). 
Grandma made a spaghetti dinner for us.
Mom worked hard to get the pool area decorated.

Our culture today...cell phone crazy.
Graduation was in the morning on Friday, but it was still approaching 100 degrees. Aaron was able to make jokes about the heat and kept us in good spirits throughout the ceremony. We were so proud of Michael.
Michael: tall one in the middle. Walking to the end of it all! Michael was a valedictorian of his class.
It's hard to tell, but that's Michael shaking the principal's hand and getting his diploma. Congratulations!
Michael and our friend Lauren. Lauren was also a valedictorian and gave a great speech.
Being the first day I had off from work, I swam at the pool all day on Friday after everyone left. Aaron joined me Friday evening and we had fun wrestling a watermelon in the deep end.On Saturday, we relaxed. The only productive things I did were laundry and run at the Y. We met with some teacher friends that night. We had a great time getting to know Sarah (Title 1 Reading) and her husband Aaron, and Jenny (1st grade) and her husband Tyler. After dinner at Abuelos, we went to Jenny and Tyler's house to play cards. We played Canasta until 1:30 a.m.! It was a fun night.
Yesterday we worshiped together (one of the best sermons we've heard...you can download it at www.wsbaptist.org), and had lunch with Carissa and CJ, Sarah and Ryan, and Brett and Jody. It was Carissa's birthday! 
In the afternoon we ran, and last night we went on a date to the movies. What a crazy but energizing weekend!
