Our last swimteam meet was on Tuesday - way to go C and P! They both swam their little hearts out and made their parents (and, of course, little sister) very proud! Our team went undefeated this season which makes for an extra bonus :)

Switching gears, my father retired from his banking career on Tuesday. My mom retired last year after teaching for 33 years - she was ready, maybe a little sad, but definitely ready and she really hasn't looked back. My dad, however, he left his office on Tuesday with his arms crossed. I would say that he is pondering this whole retirement idea and time will tell if it agrees with him. Whatever the case, he was beaching it two weeks ago with us and now he has made his way to his mountain retreat. We are looking forward to having him around more for baseball games, swimmeets, and all that other good grandparent stuff - yay! Love you, Dad!
