Bry has completed his first year of college!!! His Spring was filled with a major workload for Bry! He spent most of this semester in the Studio, working on projects that some weeks took up to 60 hours of work. He slept an hour here or there and was known to be able to be found under his desk sleeping just to get away from life for just a moment to catch a couple of Zzz before heading off to a class! It was all well worth it in that he ended his semester with good grades and his Final Project was chosen to place on display for the Graduation Ceremony. Bry had two roommates this year and was lucky to get along well with both of them. They all found a way to survive in a very small space without killing each other and as busy as their schedules were, that is surprising as one or all of them would be up many nights...all night with the desk light on studying. We were lucky to have Bry come home between projects a couple of times this semester. He was back to join the band at church in a performance which was amazing to hear them all together again! He also joined us for Easter weekend which was appreciated by his little buddy Ian. And of course there were the trips to play Frisbee Golf! One weekend, he even brought a project home to work on which was fun for us to see as it progressed over the weekend. As he would

arrive home, the house would once again fill with his friends and they would spend all nights up playing poker or watching movies and still find a way to function the next day. Caffeine is their friend as our recycling bin can attest to! He is quite happy to remind his Uncle that he won the fro contest when he came down to see Bry at school. He had fun showing off his campus to a member of his family between classes. Bry loved his professors this semester and would find time to sit and discuss projects and life with them. Brit was thrilled to have Bry home the weekend of Prom and Bry of course teased and had fun with her even during picture taking. We joined Bry a school a couple of times as well and had fun learning even more of the city. Thanks to a friend, we had an apartment to stay in most times we journeyed in. We had fun recently helping Bry and his new roommates move into their firs apartment! This gave Wayne and I many moments to pause and reflect. How would you ever know that this would come so fast? I know it was just moments ago he said his first word and lost his first tooth and took his first step... and now a first apartment! Wow...life goes so quickly!
