Graduation and Father's Day

Disclaimer:  Sorry I've been a little absent from blog writing this month.  It's been busy getting back to work and every night my gardens call out to me for attention.  By the time I get back in the house it's late and I'm tired and Grace is only moments from starting her nightly wake-up dance.  This post however is from a week ago.  I wrote it right after Father's Day and my nephew's graduation however I haven't been able to post photos because my card got damaged and I've had to take it in to have the photos recovered and the CD they gave me back doesn't seem to work either.  So, long story short, I've been waiting to add the photos of Grace (some really precious ones of her eating ice cream!) my nephew and my dad before posting but it looks like I won't have time to fix the photo problem for at least a few more days, so I'll add more later.  Here is just a couple that were on a different memory card.  Now the post....

Lots of family time today as we celebrated Father's Day with my dad as well as my nephew S's graduation from university.  I can hardly believe he's that old!  My nephew not my dad!!  It's such an accomplishment to finish university and to have done so well, I'm so proud of him!  The day started with pouring rain and I was afraid we were going to be inside all day but the sun came out just in time and the day turned out beautiful.  
Grace was up to her usual antics, coaxing my sister into giving her piggyback rides around the grass! 

She also had her first real ice cream cone all to herself!  Yummy!!!  I think she liked it, what do you think???

Grace and I had made a special gift for Grandpa out of her old rain boots.  We discovered they had a hole last week and rather than throw them out, Grace and I got crafty and made a garden decoration for Grandpa's garden.  

All in all, a great day and I'm sure S. will do well in whatever lies ahead for him post-university!
