Driver's ed is over and the official certificate has arrived! We went to the DMV today and Sawyer officially now has an unrestricted license (meaning he can drive after 9 pm and can have more than one other non-family person in the car with him).
He's been steadily working on his Eagle Scout project proposal (painting the Alfred Box of Books Library) and is ready to get signatures to turn it in. Hopefully the approval process goes quickly and smoothly and he'll soon be able to put out a call for volunteers to help.
He also has been working on summer homework assignments for a couple AP classes he'll be taking. We picked up a couple dozen crickets this morning at the Hornell pet store so he can do a biology experiment with them (no worries, it will be humane!).
The three of us will be walking in a fundraiser for the CURE organization on Sept. 8th in Rochester. It's a four mile walk along the river and through donations raises money for an organization that we have found very valuable. If anyone is interested in donating/supporting "Team McFadden" whose motto is "Kicking Cancer's Butt" you can do so at http://www.active.com/donate/riverwalk2012/mcfadden2012 Our modest goal is to raise $150 in honor of Sawyer, knowing that the money will be put toward some of the best use possible: supporting families who are dealing with kids with cancer.
