All under the same roof again

We picked Thomas up this morning from his Buckeye Boys' State week.  We learned in the middle of the week that the parents would be allowed to attend the final ceremony.  It started at 9:30, and since it was right here in town it was super easy for us!  Thomas participated in the band, and it was easy to spot him when we arrived.  When we got him, I loved the fact that the first thing he said to Andrew was to wish him Happy Father's Day, and he looked so grown up in his sport coat and khaki pants...and an American Flag tie that belongs to Andrew.  He clearly had a wonderful week.  Because he was in the band, he was able to meet Governor DeWine and shake hands and have pictures taken.  It was so cool!  We are so, so grateful that Thomas was nominated and selected to participate this week.  It was awesome for him!
