Our oldest son, Jason, is graduating this May from U.C. Berekely with honors. I'm so proud of his accomplishment. He's worked very hard for this great honor. He'll be taking a year off and then he'll go to graduate school for his masters. He's planning to apply to Harvard, Yale, Columbia, UCLA, or Stanford. We all know that Jason got his smarts from his grandfathers - an MD and a rocket engineer.
 
As for Griffin, we are planning visits next year to Berkeley, Stanford, Notre Dame, and Boston College. Lori will not let little Griffy go to USC.

Sing along with me everyone!
 
 
:M Rally sons of Notre Dame,
Sing her glory, and sound her fame
Raise her Gold and Blue,
And cheer with voices true,
Rah! Rah! For Notre Dame.
We will fight in every game
Strong of heart and true to her name.
We will ne'er forget her
And we'll cheer her ever,
Loyal to Notre Dame.
 
(Chorus)
Cheer, cheer for Old Notre Dame
Wake up the echoes cheering her name,
Send the volley cheer on high,
Shake down the thunder from the sky,
What though the odds be great or small
Old Notre Dame will win over all,
While her loyal sons are marching
Onward to Victory. :M
 
My three favorite teams are Cal (of course--go Golden Bears!), my original favorite team ever, Notre Dame...and whoever is playing against USC :Z

CONGRATS!!!!!

If Jason decides on UCLA, have him come see me for an apt.... :sombraro:

I normally don't rent to UCLA students (been there, done that :swear: )  but I will make an exception :U .

When Griffin gets ready to visit Notre Dame, we can take him on a personalized tour...  :-()  :-()


BTW....we won't "pardon" you for bragging.....we'd be disappointed if you didn't.
