Eric and I spent the morning at Durham Technical Community College, registering for dual enrollment classes. Dual Enrollment is a program which allows high school students who are at least age 16 to take college classes for free, earning both high school and college credit. The classes are free, but the textbooks are astronomical ~ we paid almost $300 for 2 books today! Anyway, Eric got into all three classes he wanted ~ PreCalculus Algebra, Conceptual Physics, and Principles of Microeconomics. Well, saying these were classes he "wanted" might not be entirely accurate ~ these were classes WE decided would be good for him to take in his senior year. :-) Since dual enrollment students have to wait until the final day of late registration to sign up, desired classes / sections are often full. He got the last available seat in the economics class. After we finished at Durham Tech, we picked up Mark at work and went out to a Chinese buffet for lunch. Then we drove back to WF and picked up Alex at work, and then came home where Mark sat with his laptop for several more hours, finishing his day of work. This was necessary because Mark's Honda is in the repair shop for work on the transmission.... boo hoo. Bekah moved back to NC State today, after spending her non-camp days with us this summer. She is one of Sarah's best friends, and our "adopted daughter".
We have definitely enjoyed having her around ~ she fit right in with our zany crew! 
Alex will be moving his stuff down to campus this weekend, but he has a consultation with an oral surgeon on Monday about removing his wisdom teeth, so he has to stick around home until after that. His classes start on Wednesday. Only one more semester and he'll be a college grad!!!

What a great pic of S&B! Don't you feel like you're pulled around from place to place (in heart and mind even when not physically) as they all move back to school? BTW, our trip to KY has been postponed :( but maybe next spring!
