GRADUATION, a LONG night, and a HOLIDAY!

In the midst of all that is happening at our house we got to take a quick trip to see my little bro graduate High School. He will always be my little brother but the truth is...he isn't really little...in fact, he's much bigger than me! We love you Cade - Congrats and best wishes for the fun future ahead!
**Note the hot pink shoes - Cade and three of his buddies wore hot pink shoes, it was great - we were able to keep track of where they were! - And, they feared the weather would be crappy so the told the kids they didn't have to dress up - how nice~ (I made him a celebration lei - it ended up being a little big...)

This year the high school put on quite an event for the graduating Seniors, in an effort to keep them off the streets they had an all night Party. Well, mom got wrapped in to doing all of the food ( not a surprise, I know) They themed the party like a cruise ship, the decorations were amazing and they had things going on all night. Fear Factor (with a 500 dollar prize), a hypnotist, lots of blow up toys, carnival games, Rock Band, life sized DDR and ended the night with a drawing for some amazing prizes (WII, Laptops, Mini Fridges, TV...grand prize a 4-wheeler) The night was amazing. I got to help mom with the food, it's been a long time since I've pulled and all nighter and it took a couple days to get back to normal!

We had a midnight buffett (complete with shrimp cocktail, wingers wings, pizza from little ceasers, and all of moms home-made cooking - honey bbq wings, bbq meat balls, hot dogs, hot links, hamburgers, nachos, fruit and veggie trays, cheese and craker trays...) Then we had a 3 am dessert bar - choco coverd strawberries and pretzels, byu brownies and eclairs, cream puffs, lemon bars, rice crispie treats, aggie ice cream, cookies, cheesecake bites... it was a great time and they had more than half of the senior class there!
We were able to squeeze in a little family time...Laex and Avi are growning so much they just follow each other around.
Now were home for a day off!!! yeah!!! LeGrand has been working so much it will be nice to get some things done around the house!!
