Hey everyone! Well, here is my post that I promised....with pictures I took from my cousin Caleb's graduation party! It was on May 31st at my cousin's house...and I took a lot of pictures! 260 actually....but don't worry, I didn't post them all I do have a warning though. I do have a LOT of pictures in this post. So please....sit back and make yourself comfortable! Make some popcorn, if you wish! I hope you take the time to look at my post though....if you knew how long it took me to upload these pictures, I'm sure you would feel much better about the amount of time you spend reading my post!
Anyway, let's get started!
Since we got there the night before to help out, we had some extra time to play around before people actually started coming. So Jessica took Kristen and I, and a couple others, for a ride on one of their 4-wheelers. I really want one of these!! It's so much fun!
A few pictures taken on their front porch If you can't tell from the pictures, their house was in the process of being re-sided. They're putting a real wood log cabin type siding on the house, and it looks awesome now!! Too bad it wasn't done for the party, but oh well...
Jessica with their dogs, Abby (left) and Baron (right).
My cousin Courtney and one of her cats, Melmon. Recognize the name?? You would if you've seen Madagascar, I am sure!
Jess and Abby
~Kristen and I~ (We look like an advertisement for a certain hardware store....)

Mom and my Aunt Stephanie, with some of the balloons they decorated with.
Here's inside the house...the table with all of Caleb's stuff on it....
And the cakes! They disappeared pretty fast because they were so good, I was lucky to get these pictures when I did!
The grill! This is my Uncle Jeff, cooking all the porkchops!
No, this isn't the graduate....it's just Uncle Darrell wearing Caleb's outfit!
My sisters...I thought this was a cute picture
My cousins Rachel and Andrew. Aren't they adorable? They played so well together, I got so many cute pictures of those two!
My cousin Nathen....he's Rachel and Andrew's brother I asked if I could take a picture of his new braces....poor kid got one of his permanent teeth knocked out! So he has to get a replacement tooth sometime!
Me, Grandma Bonnie and Kristen. She's Mom's mom, and she lives in Indiana, so it was great seeing her and Grandpa (I actually did not get any pictures of him! ) at the party! Uncle Darrell and Aunt Stephanie also live in Indiana, they came up with my grandparents.
Some of the boys playing basketball...
Look at Daniel, catching some air!
The Golf Ball Game! I don't know how many of you have played this, but it's so much fun, and really addicting, too! I had some really competitive games with Gloria, and then with Justin (as if you can imagine ME being anything close to competitive, right?? ). I am glad to say that I won all of the tournaments!! We had some pretty intense games though, it was tons of fun! We got pretty good at it after a while...
Gloria's dodging some golf balls being thrown...
Gloria and Justin are playing here
Gloria and I! This wasn't a posed picture, we actually both got this many points in one round...we thought it was kind of funny because after all of our efforts, we just canceled each other out!
And...we played a little croquet! I actually won this game too, I'm pretty good at this as well! And not because I knocked my opponents out, either...
Uncle Jeff and Aunt Cindy. Both of them were all over the place at the party, but I finally caught them together and asked for a picture!
Uncle Ed and Aunt Lisa
Uncle Darrell and Aunt Stephanie
I did get noticed for taking all of these pictures....
Gloria in a tree....she's a little monkey!
Rachel and Andrew
The Fabulous Five! I was pretty happy to get a picture of the five of us older cousins. We've grown up together and we've always been really close, it's crazy how everyone is getting so grown up!!
I think this is my first picture of Caleb...it was really hard to get pictures of him, actually! So here he is with his friend, Jake.
Caleb and his girlfriend Amber. I got one picture of her, at least...
Jessica, Kristen, and Jessica's friend Laura, taking a break on the porch
When there was nothing else to take pictures of, I settled for pictures of myself.... Here's one that I actually liked.
Bean Bags! Now THIS was a very popular game!! I didn't play it, but I did have fun taking pictures of everyone who did!
Caleb and Jake....you can see the beanbag in the air at the top of the picture!
One of my favorite pictures that I took! Isn't it so cool??
Uncle Ed and Uncle Darrell....my mom's twin brothers. You can't tell they're twins, can you?
This was a very competitive game! Just look at their faces! At the end of the day, both Dad and Uncle Ed had gone undefeated at this game, so they played each other! It was pretty intense! I think Dad ended up winning in the end, but they both did a great job!
Left to right, Uncle Darrell, Aunt Lisa, Nate, Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Ed.
At the end of the day, they had an awesome bonfire! I think these pictures are pretty cool! They're each on different settings, but I liked them both
And that is THE END! Finally, right?
Thanks so much for paying attention through to the end! I am going to be leaving on Saturday morning for camp, and I won't be back until next Friday night! So, I won't be online for a while! I still have a ton of things to do to get ready (like begin packing...), so I should get going on that!
I love the post! You did a fabulous job on all of the pictures, it looks like EVERYONE had a great time!! Thank you so much for posting all of the pictures!!
Have a great time at camp!
