Graduations Looming...

I have two very talented nephews graduating this Saturday and next Saturday.

First up: Nicholas Ryan Haussler graduates this week Saturday from Palmyra High School.

Nick's Senior picture

Nick is an amazingly gifted young man.  Music and Drama are Nick's passion and what he will major in at Nebraska Wesleyn University in the fall.   From the time he discovered music, he has been obsessed with playing it and I have no idea how many instruments he can play.  Amazing to those of us who can't read a note of music, that someone can look or listen to a piece of music and be able to duplicate it.  Nick is an Eagle Scout and just one goofy, cool guy.  Chris, Mina and I love spending time with him as we laugh A LOT. Congrats Nick ~ you are amazing, funny, and brillantly talented... Don't blow it! (just kidding, we love you and are proud of you!)

Next week,

Matt's Senior Pictures

Matthew Wayne Sanner will graduate from Gardner Edgerton High School in Gardner, Kansas.  Matthew is also musically talented with the ability to hear music and replicate it.  Matt shares my love of video games and we have shared the Legend of Zelda obsession.  Matthew with be going to Kansas State University in the fall and will be majoring in engineering.  Not surprising since Matt has his father's (my brother, Mark) love for taking apart gadgets and figuring out how to amp them up before putting them back together.  Matt is a very smart guy, a Kansas Govenor's Scholar actually, and will enjoy a bright future too! (again I say... DON'T BLOW IT! :0)  I am proud of you Bubba, Congratulations!)

Matt going to Prom.

I continue to be amazed at how fast time goes by.  These boys were just babies a blink of the eye ago.  Now they are on their way out the door to lives and dreams they will conquer!

Congratulations Nick and Matt!  We love you both!
