Tuesday(Amy's 31 birthday)

Well Monday started out with a 5'ish roll out as we had to be in east Tampa area at 8:30 for Annsley's chapel where she graduates from kindergarten on Friday. There was a joint chapel with all of the elementary students and their parents and grand parents so we headed out at 7 with GG as well for the ceremony and school program. Annsley was beautiful and did a fine job with her solo parts and then she received some very nice awards one being the first student in 20 years to make a 100 on the math test given in the kindergarten department plus she received the best story or writer award for her class.(Gets that from her daddy) We were proud of her and I could tell it meant a lot for us to be there.

We headed back home around 10'ish and made a couple stops on the way home before getting back around lunch time. Amy came with Sam and Eliza and we ate leftovers and fresh salad. Nancy made a batch of chocolate chip cookies as well. I had a large pork shoulder in the oven at low neat all morning while we were gone and then I transferred it to the smoker for the next 5 plus hours with some hickory wood. Wow was that ever delicious as we were having a supper with the Ross family, Bobby and GG. We were having to be at the library at 7 for Bobby's book being showcased at the library as well as his talk about the trilogy in general. We had 13 people in attendance with all being family and friends but one. It was a nice hour we spent as he gave a presentation then signed books purchased. We were back home around 8:30.

The pulled pork was excellent on a fresh bakery bun an along with Amy's mac and cheese we had fresh green beans and salad as well. GG made chocolate pudding and there was cookies as well. Well after the cleanup and everyone left we hit the showers and I was out by 10 as I slept little the night before for some reason, LATER
