The Grass Family Chronicles

We went to Boston last week to attend Samchoon's (Uncle Joshua) graduation from HARVARD! Caleb and Andy were so excited to for the trip, and for the most part, were awesome travellers (more about that later). We had a layover in Denver, both to and from Boston. Let's just say we didn't have a very good experience with layovers. The boys were wonderful on our first leg. Then we got to Denver and our flight got delayed... and delayed... and delayed. We ended up spending five hours there and finally got to Boston around 1AM. Jakey was completely wired and a crazy man on that flight. He passed out as soon as he got in his carseat and we all finally got to sleep around 230AM.




The next morning, we hopped in our rental mini-van and headed to see Samchoon. He was all dressed up in his cap and gown! We headed to the T and took it to Harvard Square. Got ourselves some Dunkin Donuts coffee on the way to graduation. I have to say, east coast coffee is weak! Oh, well. Beggars can't be choosers, but I was so happy to have a real cup of coffee when we got home! Anyways, graduation was great. It was outside under a tent, so the boys ran around in the back while the ceremony took place. We lined up to cheer and try to take a picture when Samchoon walked out, then we tried to sneak our way to the front when they called his name and he got his diploma.





During the ceremony, we explored the Kennedy School of Government where Joshua spent most of his time. We found proof that he really went there:



Paul took Andy and Jakey for a walk to the Coop and got all our boys Harvard shirts. Andy particulary thought he was cool stuff.



It was a great time and we were so proud of Joshua. There were so many people that came up to us to tell us what a smart and nice guy he is! And they all mentioned how much he eats, which we thought was very funny!
