I'm officially Notre Dame homeless! My dorm is now a hole in the ground where they tore it down to build a new dorm. Pangborn Hall is no longer!
Austin was chosen to participate in the 2024 All-Conference Music Festival, and this time, he made it to the concert in the evening! (Last year, he had his second seizure while at rehearsal for this and didn't make it to the concert that evening.)

We stayed at Uncle Jim's lake house and celebrated Austin's 18th birthday!
When we knew we would be visiting that weekend, I e-mailed the head coach of Notre Dame fencing to see if we could visit the fencing team or headquarters. The coach responded immediately and put us in contact with the manager, who met up with us and let us tour the fencing facilities! My little fencer was dreaming big that day!
My LEGO enthusiast was also excited to find a fencer mini figure in the LEGO model of the Golden Dome!
Lee Kiefer, ND fencing alum and Olympic gold medalist, was there with her medals as well.
