Since relatives were in town, we decided to have Strider's graduation party a few hours after the graduation ceremony. From Strider's perspective, this was not ideal since essentially none of his friends could come (since they were celebrating with their own families, etc), but convenience and logistics won out, and we were happy to several of our family friends could come anyway.
The main highlights of the party were: a snow cone machine, a bonfire, s'mores, a bunch of bundt cakes, and badminton (with glow-in-the-dark birdies when it got dark!). Of course the party completely flew by and I barely had a chance to talk to anyone, but I think it was fun anyway.
We always love seeing our community come around us -- and a celebration is the most fun occasion for that. We went to bed very thankful for all the wonderful people in our lives!!
