Pomp and Circumstance


Speaking of growing up, we went to our nephew, Shelby's, high school graduation this weekend. The weather has turned hot as of last Thursday, and the heat in the HS gym was awful. Add to that two fussy children (it was at 7 pm) and the fact that Jonas spit up on me before the ceremony ever started, and you have a recipe for a disastrous event.

It wasn't, though. People around us were kind about the children's various noises and Jonas didn't have any other tummy troubles after the first incident.

There was a pretty cool video presentation that had baby pictures and the senior pictures of the graduates, along with various other pictures throughout the years. Of coarse, my sappy self started to tear up just thinking about how all these young adults were at one point somebody's little baby.

There was a party after the ceremony at the graduate's house. Here is the cake that I made for the party:


We ended up staying until after 10:00 and the kids were up way too late. Mommy was up too late too - in fact I just dozed off at the computer for a few minutes, LOL. I'm hoping (fingers crossed!) to have a restful night tonight and a productive day tomorrow. :-)
