No Rest for Blue Jays and Eagles!













No Rest for Cardinals, Blue Jays or Eagles!

No sooner had we returned from Hawaii than it was time for Colin's orientation at Creighton. I have to say that we are in love with Creighton University, and I pray that this is a love affair that never dies! Their attention to detail is inspiring. Their student centeredness is awesome. The environment seems so personal. Colin received his roommate match, but Mitchell from Texas was going to attend a different orientation. Shucks!

I hope Colin loves it as much as we do...

..... and before he had time to say... "Blue Jays"... he received another call!

Colin didn't have a chance to recover from his Creighton orientation on July 6th and 7th before he received word that his Eagle Board of Review would be on Thursday night, July 8th. Yikes... this was a moment, he had worked toward for many years, and all of a sudden it was here. Ian and I were pacing the floor at the cabin in Vermont (which was probably a lot better for Colin than pacing the floor in Norfolk). Finally, we got word... Colin had passed with flying colors!

Hip, Hip, Hurray! We are all proud of you, Colin.
