Graduation Time

I want to thank everyone that was able to make it to Tyler's graduation party last Saturday. We had alot of fun and we were glad that some of you could celebrate with us. For those of you who couldn't be here I have added a pic of Tyler getting his diploma from the Kuemper President. Today, Cole graduated from 8th grade and like his sister last year he received the Spirit of Father Kuemper Award. It is the highest award for Kuemper 8th grade graduates and is awarded to 2 students each year. I attached a copy of the award that lists qualities of award winners. It has been another good school year. We are very proud of are graduates. And Morgan had a great year too.

Ouch x 9

Hey Family,


Tomorrow morning we have our anesthesia practical. We are being tested on the 9 most common dental injections. And the best part is, we are practicing on each other. So in 30 minutes I will be receiving 9 injections from a first timer. Doesn't that make your day seem like a winner? :) Wish me luck and a steady hand!

Following Amy's Instructions

So when Amy put up her favorite kitty potty, I said to myself, no way can I compete with that. Then on Saturday, I was on the National Mall and a video blogger put a camera in my face and started asking me questions. The URL below from Youtube is the result. Now the best part is not when I am talking, but the linkage he made to another piece of video talking about my socialist and communist friends at VA. At the end of the first film, there will open a box that asks if you would like another opinion. Click on it and see the abuse we civil servants take.

You may have to paste the address into your browser.

Hope all are doing well.

Megan's White Coat Graduation

Last Thursday Megan went through her White Coat Graduation where she has been given authority by the U of I Dental College to begin seeing patients in the clinic. Afterwards, she showed us some of her work. We especiallly love the glasses. Congratulations Megan.

Alex's graduation

Congratulations to Alex on completing his Masters in Accounting and graduating this week-end. We (Emily, Trent, Megan, Chris, Jim and Alex's mom) were in attendance at the UNI ceremonies on Saturday. Alex's sister, Abby, graduated the same day from Iowa State, so her dad went to hers.
We traveled back to the Des Moines area and had a great dinner at the TCI golf course in Polk City.

Daniella's big day

Daniella was baptised today. We had a little party at our house after the mass. I know, what kind of husband has his wife host a party on Mother's Day? Well Michelle and I had a wedding last weekend and one next, so we picked this weekend for the big day. It was a lot of work, but well worth it. We had a blast. Hope all the mothers out there are having a good day. I can't believe all that you go through! Keep up the good work.

Is there anybody out there?!

Yes, I am aware I have posted the last 3 blogs, but I can't stand it any longer! Have we become a boring family? I mean, really, no one has anything fun, exciting, new to post?!

Well, I am breaking the boring cycle by challenging each of the Neary News-ers to post something, anything, that will put us back up to cool family status.

I'll start.

While watching TV tonight, I saw the most ridiculous waste of money ever. Its called the Cat Genie and for those of you with a little extra cash to spare, you should look into the "Tuxedo Package" for only $351 your cat can pee in privacy and everything will be pumped into your toilet for easy disposal!

Click here to see more. There are even testimonial videos! Wonder if we need a few for the farm?

Try beating that sweet story! I dare ya!
