Memorial Day Weekend

Well, school was out on Friday and Memorial Day Weekend came and is almost gone. We had a blast with the grandkids on Saturday. We got to see Amiya's dance recital on Friday night, had a cookout on Sunday, and did some painting on Monday. Ah, went for a drive for my driving instructor certification on Saturday, I knew there was something I forgot.

Anyway, next week will be a bit of a challenge. This is the last week at Zarrow which has proved to be challenging on a daily basis. Monday I will be cleaning out my room and moving stuff from my current room to another room. Of course, I will also 'check out' which will be fun. I am certain I will have forgotten something!

Of course, we got to see Star Trek! It was great and Paul and I loved the chance to see the Premier together again. This makes 10 out of the 11 films that we have seen on premier night! I had the chance to see it again the following day, last Saturday, with my cousin Bill McGrew and son Michael. After that viewing, we met at Christina and Pat's for a cookout. It was a fantastic chance to see most of the family together again.

Today, Michael and I are off to see Star Trek again! Yeah, it was a good movie!

Kadence Dances

Kadence was such a cutie at Alec's Birthday party. Some might say that she was close to stealing the show!

Alec's Birthday Party

We went bowling for Alec's Birthday. I have a couple of videos of the birthday party which I will post. Enjoy!

McGrew Cousins get together in Tulsa

 

It is so nice when we cousins can get together, even if Terrie was not there. Bill, Christina, myself with Pat and Linda were able to have a fun evening at Christina and Pat's this past weekend.

Before the cookout, Michael, Bill and I went to see Star Trek (yes, Again!) - It was still as much fun the second time around!

Michael Graduates!




Michael graduates from Dove tonight! Congratulations son!


Friday, May 8

It is getting close to when Paul, Linda, Cathy and I will see Star Trek! Our tradition continues at 7 pm tonight!

Star Trek - The Tradition Continues!

Well, tonight is the premier of the 11th Star Trek Movie! Paul and I began this tradition of seeing the premiers together on December 7th, 1979. Paul was going to OU and we saw the premier in a little theater in Norman, Oklahoma. Two years or so later, we saw the Wrath of Khan and the tradition began. We missed out on seeing Star Trek III together but picked right back up with IV. Since that first premier, we have had kids, divorced and remarried, now grandkids. Wow! We are just shy of 30 years since this tradition began!

Once again, behind the times!

I know, it has been almost a month since my last item!

Since then, I have visited Jose', he is doing pretty good, at least as well as to be expected. I will not be returning to Zarrow next year so I am on the job march again. I interviewed for a company named School Wires for a sales position. I will not know for certain until July 1st, however. I will know if I made the final cut by June 1st, then, hopefully, will have a third interview. If I get the job, I will go to PA for 6 weeks of training.

This job will use my contacts in K-12 in Oklahoma and, also, my experience as a teacher. The pay would definitely put my teacher pay to shame! Keeping fingers crossed and praying profusely!

I am training to be a driving instructor. I have done the classroom stuff and will be observing two drives this week. I should be behind the wheel next week then take some tests to be certified by the end of the month. It will help out with bills.

Brody was in the hospital this past weekend with some kind of sinus infection. Not exactly sure, maybe a type of flu though not the H1N1, thank God. He seems to be doing better. In the meantime, we had Rainee, Chloe and Alec over the weekend through Tuesday.

This Friday is the premier of Star Trek! Paul and I are planning our traditional premier night movie trip! We are excited, this will be the 10th trip for us on premier night (we missed Star Trek III).

Sunday is Mother's Day, this will be the second missing my own Mother. We pray for her soul and she is in my thoughts. I don't know what will be in store for Linda but I will make certain that she has a good day.

A friend of mine, Dave Mettey, lost his father a couple of week's ago, he, too, is in our prayers.

Well, school is about to start, gotta run! God Bless you all
