The SpongeBob Musical

The spring production for the SJO drama department was The SpongeBob Musical. I am not a SpongeBob fan at all, but I did enjoy the play! Patrick did sound effects and played his part perfectly. 🙂 We were not allowed to take photos or video, but did snap a couple before the show and during intermission!

This is proof Shannon and I were there! We’re in the red circle!

Happy 17th Birthday, Patrix!

It’s hard to believe that our baby is 17. He is finishing up his junior year with flying colors, preparing for his senior year and planning for his future career. We’re so proud of him. He works hard, loves his family and is a great friend. We love you, P!

Lunch with Dad

*I’ve had quite a few people ask me why I call him Patrix, so I thought I’d share the story here so all know. When I was pregnant with Patrick, I would talk to Mac about him and all of the things that we were bringing out and buying. I would say, ‘This is Patrick’s swing. This is Patrick’s bed. This is Patrick’s ____.’ 2 year old Mac heard ‘Patrix’. So when he would refer to him before he was born, he talked about ‘when Patrix comes’. 🙂

Solo Ensemble

Every year we go hear Patrick at the Solo/Ensemble contest and we arrive just in time to hear his performances and then leave. Also, you’re not allowed to video. The band director decided this year to do a preview at the school a week before so we could hear all of the performances. Of course, the performances weren’t fine tuned and perfect quite yet, but you can get an idea of what they played for the contest. Patrick was in two groups.

On the actual day, they rocked it and received a #1 rating for both performances!

Patrick had his annual ski trip with Branson and Cooper. They had a blast as always.

Here are a couple videos he sent me from the trip!

Happy Retirement, Robert!

We traveled to Arlington to help Robert celebrate his retirement. Even though it was a quick trip for the weekend, we had a blast as always.

Congratulations Captain McMahon! We are so thankful for your service and are so proud of you! We love you!

Patrick and Shannon were the photographers for the evening.

Mac and I just sat and enjoyed the food!
