Moving James to Ohio!

Early Morning goodbyes at the airport!Clay, Rachel and Adah met us at the airport to say goodbye to James!
Not an easy day for any of us!
James is at the University of Cincinnati's College Conservatory of Music!
The campus is beautiful and
The College Conservatory of Music is a "Village" as a part of the campus!CCM Plaza...a beautiful courtyard
surrounded by awesome buildings and performing arts centers!
This is Memorial Hall...where the practice rooms are.
James' dorm is the tall building behind it!
The Vocal Arts Center... There is a beautiful Park just north of campus...Burnet Woods!
James is on the 5th floor of this dorm..."MarketPointe" is where he eats! James at work in his lovely dorm room!

Ohio Visit!

On September 15th James and I left Arizona to move him to Ohio!
What is soooo amazing is that it just "happens" that the best school
for Musical Theater, in the country, is in Cincinnati, Ohio!
(Of course it's amazing that my boy was one of 23 that got accepted this year
- out of 800+ applicants!)

But what is really cool is that my brother, Steve, and his dear family live
15 minutes from campus! I was able to stay with them for over a week!!
It was just great spending time with them and my parents & sister, Lisa,
who each drove a few hours to visit!
Their lovely home in Cincinnati!
My adorable nephews...Kyle, Kent and Vince! I loved getting to know them!

My brother Steve and his sweet wife Christine!

Before I left town...Steve, Christine and I met at "Zinzinnati's Oldest Restaurant"
- right close to campus!
We couldn't ask for greater people to be close to our "boy"!

....So I was in Ohio for my birthday
and received these awesome photos on my phone
...one by one!



I love my kids and grandkids - They're the greatest!!!!
