Spring has sprung

Spring is in the air, and the boys were both home for spring break, although their breaks were at different times.  This is a pic of them outside Mema and Grandpa's house for Easter. 

Conner's primary goal for spring break was to identify a summer internship opportunity close to home. He scored a homerun when he reached out to the Bowersock power company which runs the only hydroelectric plant in Kansas.  It is two blocks from our house and situated next to one of his favorite fishing spots.  30 hours a week, paid internship in pretty much exactly the industry which holds his interest.

Carson's summer plans did not require a search or even an interview.  He will continue working for the Great American Bank--also about two blocks from our house--and will keep caring for many of our neighbors' lawns.  Both boys have astonishing work ethic and will keep very busy the next few months.

Dad got to play Grand Marshal for the Lawrence St. Patrick's Day parade.  It is most certainly not because of our Irish heritage, although their may be some of that in the family tree...we think it may be due to the success of KU-phoria, which continues to sell and hopefully make Jayhawk fans even more proud of their school.

Hopefully we will have more CNM pics in the coming months.  The whole family will be together and enjoying a very active summer.  Oh, and September will bring about the official end of the boys' teenage years.  How is that possible????
