Justin’s Graduation Party

Had a nice party Sunday afternoon at the Swim Club for Justin. The turnout was kinda light and we had a lot of food left over. Planned enough sandwiches, fruit kabobs, veggies and Cheese stuff for 75 and probably only saw about 50 max.  The day was perfect. Low 90’s so it was perfect that we had it at the pool. The shelter provided nice shade and there was a slight breeze.

Nichole’s mom, Sharon, and her boyfriend, Don gave us a hand setting up.  Here’s a shot of them and Nichole’s little brother, Roy helping out.

Lots of Justin’s friends showed up to play volleyball and swim. They got into the bocci ball too which surprised me. I just threw them in the car on a whim.

Nichole put together 4 photo albums of various pictures of Justin. One showed him from age 0 until present. She went through about 20 albums to pick out some good shots. Included was some notable awards and notorious reprimands from school over the years. A nice mix that represented him well. She also did one album just of his band "Final Transaction". A third album was of the 2 of them and I honestly can’t remember the 4th one. Then we had some of his photos displayed along with his open guitar case for gifts.

The party lasted from 1-6:30 or so then Diane and I stayed behind for a swim to cool down and end the day. What a nice day!!!
