Katelyn was a joy to have around. Saturday, while everyone was here, Michael and Andie took her out for dinner at a new sushi place in Georgetown. She has always wanted to try it and they enjoy it so...a huge tray of food was ordered, a few lessons in chopstick use were given and learned, and Katelyn found a new thing she likes to do.
We also gave her a new hair color. We colored her hair and then put a few highlights in it. I will be forever grateful she didn't go for the black color that was discussed...oh my, I am truly grateful.
We also drove Katelyn to see Midway College and Transylvania University. Katelyn plans on moving to Kentucky after she graduates and taking up residence with her aged grandparents while she goes to school. To help her get to that point we did a lot of homework including a project with painted styrofoam balls. She wanted to see Monty Python's Holy Grail so she an Grampa watched that one evening. Her reaction..."That made no sense. It was as silly as Napoleon Dynamite!" We spent New Year's Eve singing at the nursing home in the afternoon with Papa and then hitting the store for the final set of treats to complete our festivities for ringing in the New Year together. Let's just say here that the aged ones held their on this time. We started our film festival at 6pm and watched, back-to-back, all three Lord of the Rings movies. We finished at 3am. We consumed shrimp, buffalo wings, jalapeno poppers, ice cream, soda, nuts, candy, and the list goes on. Katelyn was the only one who hurled during the night. I'm sure when she moves in we can toughen her up!!
Wow! Katelyn is so grown up. I don't think I've seen her for a long time. She's beautiful.
