way to go, josh!

my smart tart cousin joshua graduated from high school this last thursday. i'm not just calling him a smart tart to be a sarcastic punk either... he's wicked smart. of course, he's still a stupid teenage boy so i can call him a punk whenever i want..... but he finished high school so he's officially on the road of "find out what the real world is really like".

so way to go, josh! or as we used to call him--jodgy-- and connor loves to call him that now, which i find too cute. nathan was finishing up his last vball practice for the club team he coached this spring, so he missed out on josh's graduation and then had their state tourney so he missed out on the party too... and what a party it was!! food galore and slushies too. yeah, my uncle and aunt can throw a bash.

josh was a little late to his party b/c they had a baseball game that day. but it was well worth it b/c they won districts! so good job, baseball boys.

this is the only picture i got from the day. i'm quite disappointed by that. if any of my family has a digital copy of the pic of josh holding meg please email it to me. i found it a little more difficult to whip around my camera while tracking connor (who i later found eating cake with ava) and holding megan, and trying not to sniffle on the graduate b/c i was getting a cold. yeah, a cold in june! we had a chilly night and i slept with the window open. the next day i had a sore throat. go figure.
