Uncle Patrick's Graduation

We went up to New York this weekend for Uncle Patrick's high school graduation and a visit. I don't have many good pictures, so I may update this later with some of Richard's, but for now, here is what I have:

Graduation was at a park on the Hudson, so we took a few pictures by the river.

This picture is grainy because it is a still captured from a video, but I love it anyway.

While we were there Nicholas really enjoyed getting the chance to play a real piano. He likes our electric keyboard, but this was much more exciting! And since he (at least for now) does a good job of playing it rather than banging, hopefully he isn't doing any damage. There is a video of him playing in the Gallery, but here are a couple snapshots:

Now Nicholas and I are headed off on a week-long trip to Louisville and Cincinnati. I may blog while we're gone, but won't be able to upload pictures since I'm not lugging my computer. (Flying alone with him is going to be challenging enough without having to deal with the extra hoops involved in taking a computer through security. It is bad enough that I have to get both of our sets of shoes on and off while juggling all our stuff and a child who does not do well with staying put.) Wish me luck.
