The Griesbaum Family: Movin' Out and Graduation!

Well the time has come for Tyler to fledge the nest. Kind of. Last Friday John and Tyler packed up his room and moved it all over to his new apartment. I didn't even think to take pictures because I was busy with the boys. Tyler seems to be happy in his new place. He has already had friends over there, and family. He still comes over here for dinner, to do laundry, and to clean out the fridge as best he can. Without anything in his room to distract him, I think we are going to be seeing much more of our boy Tyler this way!! We hope he'll still come out when we move out to Monticello. He is very fortunately borrowing a car from a friend of his.

Also, on Tuesday he graduated from High School! Now of this we got plenty of pictures. It may just be a walk across the stage but it has big meaning. We are so proud of him. He has really worked hard the past couple years to try to get his grades up and finish well. He is going to be going to Parkland College, a community college, here in Champaign for 2 years and then he wants to transfer to a University. He has one picked out, but I'm not even going to get that far ahead. We are hoping he decides to stay here at U of I because they have such a great computer programming program. He wants to go into game design (as in video games) but we'll see what happens in two years time!
