June: Birthdays, Graduation, Hardship

This has been a very busy month, especially with the two girls graduating and several birthdays being celebrated! Yesterday we went to Pennsylvania to celebrate my mother-in-law Alberta's 70th birthday. She was certainly surprised! Her daughter Debbie and my FIL Fred did a great job planning everything.

Other June birthdays: my dad turned 77 on June 20 and nephew Sean was 19 just this past Saturday. Niece Amber had a birthday June 10 and that was combined with her 8th grade graduation party. Heidi and Kristin both graduated.

Tomas is having surgery to put tubes in his ears tomorrow morning.

The hardship we are having has to do with the fact that things are so slow in the sheet metal trade. Ted is still out of work and we have more expenses than we planned for. I got a ticket-to-work from social security and hope to get a job out of it!
