Pam's Corner... comments, questions and other stuff by Port's Famous Photographer

The month of May is always crazy...and this year is no exception.  We have a lot of family stuff going on in addition to many community activities. 

It's a busy month for family birthdays...and special milestone birthdays at that! Our number four grandchild will celebrate her 21st birthday. She shares a birthday with her grandpa!  The very next day, our youngest grandchild will celebrate his first birthday! Later in the month, our next to the youngest grandson will turn 2 and his great-grandpa (my dad) is just 90 years older.  My two younger brothers and their wives celebrate anniversaries in May and then there is Mother's Day! I also have a couple of dear friends with birthdays this month. And last, but certainly not least, we are expecting a new great-grandson before the end of the month. So, Happy 21st Sasha! Happy 1st birthday Kobe!

Coming up...and there is a lot!  May 8 and 9 -spring musical!  Beauty and the Beast! It will be phenomenal...I know our church is having a Mother/Daughter Tea and I imagine other churches are celebrating Mother's Day in a variety of ways. There is a Leek Dinner at the Veterans Memorial on Saturday, May 9.  I'm not fond of leeks, but you don't have to be to enjoy this dinner. It will be delicious!  Senior Day celebrations will take place for PAHS baseball and softball on May 13.  Both teams playing double headers and the ceremonies will take place between games.  Also on the 13th is a spring concert - with the younger musicians - 4th grade to 9th, I believe.  A Race for Education, sponsored by the PAES Boosters, will take place on Friday ,May 15th. The following day will be the Town Wide Yard Sales.  If I get organized, we will have a garage sale at my mom's house.  Stop by and see how I made out.

I have to share about the Character Breakfast held last weekend at the school.  While others are often shaking their heads at "kids these days"...I shake my head in awe of them and wonder just how they do it all. After a week full of school, sporting events, musical practices and more, the main characters from Beauty and the Beast were up and ready to go at 8 a.m    Did I mention it was prom night?  We honestly have some pretty amazing kids! Everyone has been talking about how great it was for all of the children. I found quite a few adults who were equally as excited about the event. Over 250 people attended.
