Graduation Season 2018
Posted on May 29, 2018 by Ching under Events, Family, Food and Drink.
We had five new high school graduates in our circle of family and friends this season. While we only made one actual graduation ceremony, we did make it to a few parties. Here are some pics.
Lindsay said she couldn’t guarantee being able to save us seats unless we got there at six o’clock, a whole hour before Madison’s graduation. I’m not sure how we did it, but we managed to get there right as they were letting people in so we got to sit with their family and Lindsay didn’t even have to save our seats!
Here are a few pics I took of the display at Madison’s graduation party.
It’s hard to believe that this child is now a practically grownup.
Next up was Logan’s graduation. We had grandma over for lunch that day so we skipped the graduation part and just went straight to the party at mom and dad’s house later that afternoon.
No fancy display but we did have a couple of fancy cakes. Mom ordered a fancy graduation cake made of chocolate.
Here’s a picture of Logan’s fancy chocolate cake up close.
I ordered the purple ube cake for the party because I wanted some and I couldn’t eat a whole cake by myself. Logan’s graduation seemed like a good excuse to order the cake that I wanted to eat. LOL.
Except I was too full from eating all of the other food that I only had one slice of cake. I was telling Brian that was the most expensive slice of cake I’d ever eaten. I paid $40 for a cake only to eat just one slice of it. FAIL!
How did I get so full? Well, because this happened…
BBQ Pork
Mashed Potato
Rotisserie Chicken
Roast
Embutido
Adobo
Pancit
Lumpia
Biko
I can’t remember what this thing is called but it’s also another Filipino dessert.
Here’s a picture of mom with our little graduate, who’s not so little anymore.
Anyway, Marc and Jessica’s son Eli graduated in the same class but we couldn’t go to his graduation party because we were at Logan’s. We had to support our nephew, of course! Anyway, we had a card with the some money for him and we just ended up dropping it off the next day, on our way to Brynden’s graduation party.
We didn’t make the graduation ceremony because it was the same time as my Sunday Zumba class but at least we made the party!
Speaking of graduations we couldn’t make, my inaanak Steffano graduated this year also. We obviously couldn’t make that one because they live in Alaska. This year has probably been the year we’ve had the most graduations of kids who are really close to us. Not just some distant relative or children of acquaintances. These are children of close friends and people who are like family to us and, our own nephew of course. It has been quite a year for graduations! That’s all for now. GNG.
