Gabe decided he had to be in this picture. hahaha
Arden is that silver dot getting ready to step onto the stage.
Arden's graduating class had an accumulative GPA of 3.5 I thought that was pretty impressive.

Memorial Day and Graduation
I'm really looking forward to the summer and I'm way excited that Leslie will be home so soon! It was really great spending time with my mom this weekend and visiting old friends. Here are some pictures.

New Years
These are the wonderful pictures that I took over the New Years visit.

Miranda!
Tenny's Lady Gaga attempt.
I hope that no one murders me for this one.
When Banner and Tenny attack.

Here are a few Mad Libs that Arden and I have done that we think should be shared.
PIRATES AND SEA MONSTERS
It was a warmongering night, with fog so in utero, you could barely see your blood stain in front of your scorched roll. The only sound was the groan of the tired magnet and the soft wind, which seemed to whisper "Offer... offer." Suddenly, tennis rackets shot out of the ocean like water bottles on the Fourth of July. Bang! Pow! They grabbed for oil wells to bring down to the bottom of the sea- to Davy Jones's Locker. The dreaded computer monster, Arden, was as big as a giant table cloth and it smelled like rotting Martinelli's. I hid inside a proton and fitted as the monster sucked the nostril right off one of my shipmates! I was scared out of my bucket, and my clavicle almost stopped beating! But, lucky for you, I escaped with my tedium and lived to tell the relentless tale!
MORE GREAT EXCUSES FOR TARDINESS
Dear Principal,
I am sorry to have to tell you that my snappy son Gabriel will be unable to attend your annoying school this week as he has caught a case of the Wookie pox. The bloody brilliant doctor says that it will be 1,022 weeks before he is healthy and back on his cuticles again.
Dear Math Teacher,
I was driving Rebecca to school when the blemishes failed and my car crashed into dish water. By the time the tow narrator finally arrived and the womanish mechanic relieved the expiration and recharged the quark, we had missed your resonant class.
WHEN I GROW UP
Now that I've graduated from grade 13, I'm going to start slapping more often. After all, I'm practically a dragon! Since I want to be just like Donald Trump, I better start washing as sporadically as possible. I think this summer I'm going to get a part time job as a toll booth attendant, or a slurpee machine repairman. That will teach me how to be disturbing and maybe I'll even make 500 dollars! Then I can put all my money in McDonald's and collect pictures. When I retire at age 20, I'll be a slug. Maybe I'll even get to live on the beach in the zoo, buy expensive constellations, and drive a fancy tadpole. Wouldn't that be ticklish? I'd better start annoying right away!

New BLOG!
This last semester I took a Japanese class. As part of the final for the class we were required to write a letter in Japanese with the given vocabulary. So I made up a little letter with the rudimentary Japanese that I have learned. I've written the letter traditionally, up to down, right to left.

How do you do? I am an American. I am a college student. Are you a student? I attend Japanese class. Today it is cold. There's a storm. Yesterday a friend and I went to a cafe. We drank tea. It was fun. Tomorrow I have an English test. Tonight I'm going to study Japanese. I'm busy! What are you doing this week? I like tea and Japanese restaurants, I hate home work. What do you like? Do you like to hang out? Pleased to meet you!

Hahaha I think it's actually kind of funny when it's translated into English!
The class was really fun and I felt like I learned a lot in a short time. I'm looking forward to taking the next level spring semester.
