We all went to camp today.
This morning Morry dropped off Noah at camp and then went to Camp Gladitor.
I stayed home since Evan was getting picked up for the middle school camp at 8:30.
At 10am I had a meeting at the Honda Dealer about possibly doing some social media for them.
Evan got home a little after 12.
Later in the afternoon Morry and Evan went to the baseball fields.
I picked up Noah from camp. Then, I went to an evening class of Camp Gladiator.
When I got home we started making dinner.
We had grilled chicken and salad for dinner.
Soon, the kids will get ready for bed.

Busy Day + Lizzy Check Up
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
This morning, I drove Noah to drama camp. He seemed excited to go.
Evan got picked up a little while later to go to Transition Camp at the middle school he'll be going to in the fall - Gorzycki Middle School (pronounced GO-risky). He and three of his buddies all rode together.
Rachel and I then took Lizzy to get a check up with the vet. The vet could not believe the improvement that Lizzy has made. I got the impression that, perhaps she was skeptical of Lizzy having a stroke last week. She said strokes are less common in dogs. She felt it was probably a tumor. But given how Lizzy has recovered, she now thinks the stroke is a distinct possibility. She said she'd love to get an MRI just to take a look, but it's $2000 and it's hard to justify the expense.
Evan got dropped off around noon. We had lunch and then Rachel brought Evan over to Wade's house.
Rachel tutored in the afternoon.
I picked Noah up from camp. He had another good day. We got home in time to be there for when Evan got dropped off by Wade's mom.
When Rachel got home, we walked Evan over to Grandma and Papa's. He was having dinner with them.
Evan, Noah, Rachel and I had tacos.
After dinner, we walked to get Evan.
The boys are getting ready for bed now.
Until next time...

Middle School Introduction
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
Evan went back to school this morning. He didn't give us a problem going. It was just a typical morning.
There was no Camp Gladiator today, so Rachel and I went for a 3 mile walk instead.
Rachel had a phone meeting in the morning. I worked from home all day.
It rained around mid-day but stopped in time for us to walk to pick up the boys.
In the late afternoon, Gayle came over with her daughters, Naomi and Bryn. They were helping Rachel with a product review video. Rachel recorded them for one of her reviews. They did a good job.
After that, we went to Gorzycki Middle School (pronounced Go-Risky). In Austin, students can choose their middle school. There are several magnate middle schools. Students have to apply to get in there. There are also several programs at other middle schools that aren't magnate but students still have to apply to get in. Because of that, many of the middle schools have events to "sell" their middle school. Tonight was the one at Gorzykci. Gorzycki is just our local middle school. I don't think Evan will be applying to get in anywhere. It's a very good middle school, it's close to our house, and it has everything Evan needs. But we went to the event. They had one of the three dance teams perform, as well as one of the three choir groups, the guitar group, the top of the three orchestras and the top band. The principal spoke and introduce the assistant principals and counselors. The principal seemed good but she did say the thing that will always discount an educator in my eyes - she said the word "y'all". I don't mind when people say "y'all" but if an educator says it, I immediately lose respect. If you were in New York or Philadelphia and the principal said "you's" or you were in Pittsburgh and the principal said "yinz", I'm sure you'd feel the same. Other than that big gaffe, I had no issues with her. After all the presentations, they had the kids walk around the school. It was huge. I think it's close to as big as my high school. Something online said it has 1300 students for the three grades. My high school had 1000 for the four grades. It was exciting. Evan seemed to enjoy running around the halls looking in all the classrooms and seeing the classes he can take. I think it took some of the nervousness away.
We came home, had dinner and the kids are now in bed.
