Thursday- We headed out to Ft. Pierce. Uneventful trip except for the service plazas changing their restaurants..have you ever taken a 13 yr old boy to eat and only find "Nature's Table"? Health Food is not his thing. We arrived at Mom & Papa's and promptly took over their lives. Later that evening, Jennifer was baptised by Papa in the swimming pool.
Friday was spent running around trying to get everything together for Jenny's graduation on Sat. Jim went with to me order the cake. NEVER AGAIN!!! He doesn't do grocery shopping, so he had no idea what specialty cakes and deli meats cost. Needless to say, he went into shock in the middle of Publix.
Saturday was the big day. Graduation. Everything went beautifully. Nice thing about private school homeschooling is that you can have your graduation any way you want it. We opted for casual and relaxed. Jenny wore her cap and gown, we played "Pomp and Circumstance", and she walked to her Dad who gave her the diploma, followed by Papa giving a wonderful talk and prayer. We then proceeded to PIG OUT!!! The only hitch in the day was Jim running around trying to shove cake at everybody. He wanted to make sure that none was wasted.
Sunday it was up and off to church. But not before Jim got his biscuits and gravy. He whined all weekend because mommy hadn't made them for him yet. Then it was back home to eat lunch and pack for the trip home. And Jim was still shoving cake at everyone!!! The trip home was fun. Boys in one SUV, girls in the other. We brought Garry home with us and he is living it up being the youngest here. I can't close this out without a big hug, kiss and thanks to my wonderful inlaws (although I don't consider them inlaws, they are Mom and Papa) for letting us take over their home and lives and even re-arrange their furniture. We are blessed to have such a close family.
