Graduation Party

My cousin’s son’s graduation party was Saturday afternoon at her home in Indiana. It was a lot of fun and good to see my cousins and my aunt M (who makes a mean taco salad; recipe borrowed from my late grandmother) and uncle B (who other than my other uncle’s funeral last year, I rarely get to see).

We were there from 2:30-8:00 which was longer than I expected, but not in a bad way. Many photos were taken, most of which ended up on Facebook. I’m sure my friends were getting annoyed by how many photos I was tagged in over the weekend, especially since I had just complained about people posting endless pictures of themselves on social media. Does that make me a hypocrite even though it was actually my cousin who posted them all?

My mom and brother # 1 stopped by for about a half hour. I could tell my brother would have liked to stay longer but my mom wasn’t up to visiting very long due to her allergies. I reminded him that we’ll be over this coming Saturday to celebrate the 4th so he didn’t feel so bad about having to leave.

Sometimes I wish I lived closer to my family so we could hang out more often, but I like the area where we live. I’m just not that fond of Indiana in general. I’m planning on hosting a dinner & game night later this summer and inviting my cousins over. I hope they’ll be able to make it.
