Ryan Update

So, this update only goes through the end of the summer.  I have a lot more updating to do since then.  I already blogged about baseball so I didn't include that.  Ryan has been a busy boy between band, piano, scouts, school and sports.  He is a great kid and has been growing so much.  He is taller than me now, not that that is a hard accomplishment.

Ryan ran for student council.  He had to fill out an application, write an essay and give a speech in front of the school.  The letter said they should dress up.  Obviously "dressing up" means different things to different people.  Ryan said he felt like a dork, but I think he looks very "GQ".  He was very nervous, but he did an awesome job.

After his speech, feeling a little relieved.  He found out the next day that he had WON!  YEA!!!
