The Graduating Banana part 3

Last part of the graduation festivities for Aunt Banana was the celebratory party. There was much preparation to do, I stuck with food preparation, something I enjoy more than yardwork.





Dinoguy helped Grandpa Actuary with the mowing for a while, though he was disappointed he couldn't try it himself. (It is a bit more complicated/ sensitive than our lawnmower at home!)






When the guests arrived, we were ready. There was food, fun & friends everywhere. The teenagers tended to congregate outside around the firepit, volleyball net & various swings, while the older folk tended to find comfortable seats in the house where there weren't evil mosquitos.



Dinoguy also demonstrated his bike riding skills at the party, watch him go. Can you see the improvement over the past day?

The dogs retreated to the safety of their bed, not wishing to be trampled by the crowds. See how much they enjoy the party?









About 8:45 pm, Trainboy announced to me that it was time for him to go to bed, guess all the party prep and fun tired him out early! After he was asleep, I joined Dinoguy at the firepit for some s'mores.

Don't you just love when kids put them selves to bed? I recently (since the move) gave up bed times for our kids, and things have gotten so much smoother!
