time warp

     this is an all points bulletin warning everyone that apparently the lakeside villa subdivision in sullivan has fallen into a time warp, that causes you to immediately lose several hours from your day.  i went home for 4 days and it went by so fast that there is no possible way that time was passing normally. 
     graduation was a fun and crazy experience that involved lots of really, really cute pictures of andy and jonathan in their caps and gowns.  check out how cute my family is!

it was actually a nice ceremony, the weather was gorgeous, and there was only one seriously long-winded speaker!  my idea of a perfect graduation ceremony.  if only the bleachers in sullivan were remotely comfortable.  after graduation we sat in the hot tub and drank wine until mom fell asleep, which is always a good time.

saturday morning is when the serious time suck happened!  we all woke up late because we stayed up too late on friday and it was suddenly noon and we still hadn't gone on our grocery run.  mom and i ran to shelbyville to get groceries before she had to leave for a wedding and i had to head to grandma's to bake a cake.  it was a seriously crazy day that involved lots of running around and nuttiness before the brandenburg family graduation party.

dinner with the bburgs was really fun.  it is always nice to see everyone and since i hadn't seen most of them since christmas, it was even better.  plus i got filipos pizza, which is always a bonus and we managed to develop a seriously great topping switch at our end of the table too!  dad got my sausage and pepperoni, i got everyone's mushrooms, and everyone was happy.

sunday we got to party, that is after we finished getting everything ready including making a great graduation cap cake and finishing up getting all of the pictures together and setting up alternative sources of shade.  it was rather warm, so shade was definitely necessary, even if it was fake. the party was really fun and it was great to see people that i don't get to see too often.  andy didn't even complain too much when we wanted to take a bunch of pictures :)

yesterday also super fun, even though i sat at the airport for like 7 hours before i got back to colorado.  i went to a barbeque with ron and becky, which was really fun and i got to go for a ride in the fiat spider convertible!  oh so much fun.

the best part of yesterday, however, was the four hour nap that i got to take when i got home.  overall it was a fabulous weekend even though it was seriously short and busy.  school starts in a couple of days so updates will be plentiful this week.  have a happy day everyone!
