It's that time of year!

It's May. Usually with May comes sunshine and warmer weather...but we live in Chicago, so you can't always count on that. What you can count on is Graduations. With May comes Graduations at all levels. 5th graders move on to middle school, 8th graders to high school, 12th graders to College, and College seniors (16th graders?) move on into the real world.

A couple of weekends ago we headed down to Oxford, Ohio to see Brian's brother, Kevin graduate from Miami University of Ohio. The last of the Witkowski boys to head into the real world.

Sorry Kev, it's time to get a job. There's nothing like college, eh?

I have family who lives in Hamilton, OH, just outside of Oxford. So, rather than stay in a hotel, we decided to stay and visit with Aunt Jan, Nick & Sarah. It was much more comfortable, especially with the two kids. Here's Kenna chowing down a nana for breakfast.

Big 'ol Tonka checking out Kenna...she loved watching Tonka
and their two other dogs, Bear and Miller!

lovin' her scrambie eggs

and trying bacon for the first time! She loved it, of course!

Kevin's graduation was at 7pm Saturday night, so we enjoyed an early dinner at Paesano's italian restaurant. It was delish!
Here's Barb, Rich, Benny, Brian & Kenna

Eric & Sabrina left to go check into their room

graduation was in the new Ice Arena...Kenna & Benny did great, but we spent the majority of the time up in the concourse with the rest of the little kids

Congratulations, Kevin! We are so proud of you!
