Busy Busy Day

It was a very busy day. I work in Conway, SC which is about 28 miles from where we live in Myrtle Beach. I got a call at the last minute today that Bryanna was hired as a Jr. Counselor for the County's summer camp this year. Great news but she had to be at a required First Aid class at 6:30 in Conway. So I left work at 5, drove over to the ballfield to pick up Andrew and Bryanna, dropped Bryanna off at class and drove back home because the class was suppose to be 2.5 hours. When Bill got home, we had dinner and were heading back to Conway when Bryanna called at 8:30 to say the class was over. It was originally suppose to be over at 9:00. Well, there was no rushing to go get her because the traffic is awful with the holiday weekend coming up but we got there around 9:05 and all was well, there were still a bunch of kids waiting for rides. She will be Jr. Counselor at the same camp Andrew is going to so hopefully that will work out.

Anyway, last night was the Spring Concert featuring the Myrtle Beach Middle School Orchestra so we went over to the high school to attend. Before the concert, the school held a fund raiser called a "Dessert Social" I hope no one from Weight Watchers police was there because I think I ate my points for the next, um...3 months maybe??? They had about 8 tables loaded with bite size pieces of every kind of cake, cookie, brownie, cheesecake, or pie, you could ever want. They also had a really good punch and coffee. Andrew wanted a cup of coffee but chocolate, coffee and Andrew do not make for a good evening.....Anyway the concert was great and the orchestra played music from "Pirates of the Caribean" We now have an awarding winning violinist in the family!
A few weeks ago, Bryanna participated in a competition with an ensemble and received 2 Superior ratings!

We also have a very pretty AND smart niece in Conneticut who was inducted into the National Honor Society this week. Did I mention she is a very talented basketball player and track star???



This is Ashley with her boyfriend, Ben who was also inducted into the NHS. Congrats to both!!! Uncle Billy can't wait to meet Dan this summer!

Baseball game tomorrow afternoon and then we head to Elgin for the weekend. My dad and Bill will be going to Lowe's Motor Speedway on Sunday for the Coca-Cola 600. Dad is a Jeff Gordan fan and Bill is a Dale, Jr. fan so it is always a fun time for them both! The kids hope to get some swimming in and I hope to work on my scrapbooks!!! Hopefully the weather will be nice.
I hope everyone has a safe and happy Memorial Weekend!
