Party Time

balloons

 

This summer has been so busy for me.  Busier than any summer I can remember in quite awhile.  I have had an occasion to attend (sometimes two or three) every weekend since the middle of May.

Graduation parties are starting to come to an end.  It seems all of my cousins children are graduating this year.  I have to ask, did they all get together and say, “Hey! I know!  Let’s all get pregnant this year, so our kids can all graduate the same year! and then, guess what, let’s not have a combined party……………..no, let’s have 17 separate ones!!!”

I must admit it has been wonderful seeing all of my relatives at happy occasions.  This sure beats the years we only get together for funerals. 

I will be posting as much as I can the next few weeks.

Until then, I will be busy buying cards and writing out checks……….

    I concur, seeing family at parties is better than funerals … now, all these kids will be getting married around the same time, … showers and parties!!!

    There’s something so surreal about going to graduation parties. The innocence and anticipation of whats to come is awesome – I wish I would’ve appreciated mine more…the party and the checks!

    That is why you have been so busy. Keeping up on the posting is really tough when so much is going on. Just going on a trip for a few days set me back a week. Ugh.

    Graduation parties always make me a little misty-eyed.
