Celebrate

Jesse's graduation has already paid off in many ways.  He is now enjoying his generous graduation presents... (who knew they'd be better than Christmas?!) ... we now for the first time have a TV that actually works and and a car stereo instead of a gaping hole left by thieving crooks.  PLUS we got to have this fun party with the Jackson crew in Midway. (The only downer was that the swimming pool was completely drained of any water.  Boo.)   But we still had fun going for a bike ride, as it was especially entertaining 

 watching my sister Kat re-learn the basics of bike maneuvering.  

But maybe the best benefit of graduating was finding out that you can keep the same job you already had, and just get paid a lot more for the same work you were already doing.  Thank you College Degree.  We appreciate that.
