Congratulations to our Class of 2009!!!!
What a wonderful ceremony we had on Saturday, May 30th in Charleston. I want to especially thank the graduates, their parents, and all in attendance. I never dreamed we would have packed that church. The DVDs are being prepared and I will contact you when they are ready. I still have some of your pictures and will return them to you.

Are you using your computer to keep valuable records for your homeschool? Are your children using the computer to do their lessons? Can you afford to lose those records or your child's hard work?
Every year, 43% of computer users lose irreplaceable emails, photos, documents and files.
Now you can use the same same safe, secure system I use! Have you system automatically backup without you even thinking about it and then restore it with just a few clicks of the mouse when you need to.
I have had families lose their lesson plans, grades, and children's school work and have no way to recover the information! DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU.
OK... NOW IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME!! ... AND CARBONITE WORKED JUST AS PROMISED TO TOTALLY RESTORE ALL OF MY VALUABLE FILES AND GET ME BACK UP AND RUNNING WITH JUST A FEW KEYBOARD STRIKES AND CLICKS OF THE MOUSE ON MY NEW COMPUTER. THAT'S RIGHT! I HAD MY COMPUTER COMPLETELY CRASH. I HAD TO GET A NEW REPLACEMENT COMPUTER AND BE UP AND RUNNING QUICK SO AS NOT TO LET ANY OF MY MEMBERS DOWN. CARBONITE RESTORED ALL OF MY FILES AND I DID NOT LOSE OR COMPOMISE ANY MEMBER INFORMATION OR FILES.
