More May....a Grad Party, Mother's Day, a birthday....and..and...and....

Between the two build weekends we had Mother's Day Sunday where we also incorporated a Graduation party for Ashley and Denny's birthday....wow, a busy fun family day. After 12 of us attended church in Palmetto and 5 more in Marietta we all met at Deb's house for swimming, partying, and lunch. The Mother's were kind enough this year to let Ash pick "all her favorites" for the menu....even sweet Cindy that was celebrating her 1st Mother's Day.
Our menu was ham/green bean casserole/homemade mashed potatoes/several appetizer sides and chocolate fondue for dessert...YUM. Dave added his yummy brussel sprouts and it was a wonderful meal.
Then it was time for some graduation gifts....one thing we gave her was a picture on canvas of her favorite Casey Key Beach jetty....maybe it will find a place on her dorm room wall...



 Her aunts and uncles gave her a 3 piece luggage set.....


Her cousins gave her a Yeti (complete with her initials), a docking station/alarm clock for her iphone and some extra $$$ to add to her college fund....Muma gave her $$$.....she was ready to go...North Georgia College, here she comes.


Next all the Mom's got to open gifts and then Uncle Denny opened his....He'd already gotten his Keurig from me, it was back at home....these were cards and things from all the others. He was enjoying holding Gwyn...the little girls are so sweet.....


Next up fondue and cupcakes.....can u tell we all liked it???


This was Dylan's first fondue...he was getting instructions from the pro!!!


His marshmallows kept falling off, but it was fun...


What a great family day....there are so many of us, and we don't all live in ATL anymore so there are not many times we ALL get together...in fact, this time we were missing Des and Quinton...so we didn't make it this time either, maybe soon. We missed you guys!! 

Hope the Mother's enjoyed their day....Happy Graduation Ash 
and Happy Birthday Denny !!!
