Every year at the MSU- BSU they have a "Senior Mugging" night. NO, they don't kidnap the graduating seniors and mug them....they actually GIVE them a 'mug'...hence "mugging"!!
This year Billy had offered to have it at our home, and at the same time burn off some brush that has been accumulating in our backyard since the ice storm. We were going to roast hot dogs over the 'bonfire' and just enjoy the outdoors for a while. Well.....God had other plans. We had been getting rain off and on all week, and Friday morning Billy and the rest of the BSU staff made a decision to have it in the BSU basement due to the chance of rain.
Well it's a good thing they did!! Just about the time it would have started, a pretty big storm developed and moved over the northside of town; it was quite a 'gully-washer'!! So we all kept warm and dry and still got to enjoy grilled hot dogs and hamburgers.
There were 5 students this year that qualified for the 'mugging', and they basically call the person up to the front of the room; the director tells us a little bit about them and then invite the others there to tell 'stories' about how they met that person, or a funny story about them, etc. They are then officially named a "BSU Alumni". The BSU also takes the seniors out for dinner at a local restaurant as well.
Another year of school is almost over....can you believe it??
This is just what the title says: Life in the household of The Grady's. Sometimes I talk about our life in general, other times about our jobs, funny stories, and maybe even a video or two. OH...and of course pictures and stories of our 2 granddaughters! I try to update at least every other day, unless there is a LOT going on in our house, then it might not be so often!
