Field Day

 Yesterday, Sarah and William had a great time at their annual school Field Day.  Sarah was chosen based on her leadership abilities to carry the torch during the Opening Ceremonies.

Happy 96th Birthday!

 Happy 96th Birthday to Great Grandpa Green!

 We had family in California, Pennsylvania and Maryland on Face Time celebrating with us.  It would have made a great Apple commercial!
