Abby is alone at St Pius School now that her sister is at Gabriel Richard High School. The whole family attended the St Pius Awards banquet, though. Her sister took the photos.
As Athletic Director for the school, her dad was the MC, introducing all of the coaches to give awards for all of the sports.
The most important awards were for Student Athletes. These students had to carry a 3. average and participate in at least 2 sports. Abby qualified again this year.
Besides their medals each student-athlete received a special t-shirt.

Catching up - APRIL 2018
We have been in Florida for the past
3 plus months. We haven't used the pool much but our company later in the winter has.
Abagael played basketball for the Winter and won several MVP awards. Although the coaches choose this time her father, Athletic Director, presented the award. She is a fierce player and nicknamed The Beast.
For Christmas the family got a dog. Two days before the holiday Gabby, Carrie and I drove to the other side of Ann Arbor to meet a breeder related to one of Carrie's fellow teachers. It was supposed to be a surprise for Abby and her dad but they had guessed.
The purebred "Party-colored Yorkie" immediately worked his way into all of our hearts.
Axel goes everywhere with the family and is a special hit at basketball games. So many people want to hold him that sometimes they don't know exactly where he is. Once home again he sleeps and sleeps.
There were tributes all over the country for the 17 children killed by a Florida school shooting. This photo is from Gabriel Richard High School in Michigan, that Gabby attends.
Near the end of March, Butch and Merna visited from Michigan especially for Roman's birthday. On that birthday, March 29, Carrie, Mike and the girls flew in and overlapped Butch and Merna by a couple of days, including Easter, the day after Roman's birthday this year.
Yes, take 2 teen girls to the beach and teen boys seem to pop out of nowhere.
A walk along Indian River Drive and a stop at Captain Hirams and Squid Lips was almost a daily routine.
3 plus months. We haven't used the pool much but our company later in the winter has.
GABBY-Fall 2017
Fall 2017, Gabby played Freshman Volleyball for her new high school, Gabriel Richard. She really didn't like her photo taken. She was #21.
The freshmen girls seemed to have the most fun when playing a team with ex-classmates from St. Pius, now from other high schools. Lots of fraternizing after the games.

March 16, 17, 18, and 19 Carrie and Gabby, only, were here for a mini break.
They had plenty of time for pool and beach while the weather back home was cold, cold, cold.

With almost 10 days in Florida for Spring Break, there was a lot of pool-time and beach-time. This time Axel, the puppy, flew down and back with them.

Time to Catch Up - SEPTEMBER 2017
By early September, Gabby was seeing a boy from Wyandotte Roosevelt, who played football (#58). It was inevitable that his and Gabby's Dad's team would be playing against each other. Unfortunately, Gabby had a volleyball game that afternoon and sister Abby was the photographer at Wyandotte. Also, unfortunately, Carlson lost that game and a subsequent rematch a month later.
Later in September Gabby's school's homecoming and dance were the same night as her date's. They chose to go to the Wyandotte dance. Both families got together at Bishop Park along with a ton of other families to take photos of the kids and, for most, their first dressy dance. Later that night Gabby said it was The Best night of her life.
The parents posed with both kids and even the 3 grandmothers got into the photos.
Time to Catch Up - AUGUST 2017
As my dear neighbor prepared to leave on a 6-month jaunt to visit good friends (and some business) her son and some friends took over her house next door. To the delight of my granddaughters, one couple moved in with a couple of puppies. Adorable and energetic!
Gabby had to be around for volleyball practices as she worked to make the Freshman team for fall. Here are the freshman girls (green) with their varsity big sisters (yellow).
She made the team! The only lefty. Sometimes it pays off.
Carrie's Carlson class had a reunion at the winery near Carrie and
Mike's lake house. Abby went with her mother and played photographer
and DJ for the day and evening.
