On Sunday, June 5, 2016 my brother Thomas graduated from high school. The commencement ceremony was held at 2:00 in the afternoon.
 |
| ^^Thomas and his buddies as high school graduates!^^ |
 |
| ^^Our Dad's brother George and his wife came up for the ceremony and party.^^ |
We had Thomas' graduation party right after the ceremony. It was a warm, sunny, and windy day. Thomas had a lot of people come - family and friends.
Guests walked into our entry way and where able to see some pictures of Thomas.
The color theme for the part was red, white, and blue.
 |
| ^^Guests could sign these papers - one with the front of Thomas' invitation and one with the back of the invitation - which will go into Thomas' scrapbook.^^ |
From the entry way, guest made their way into the kitchen - where all the food was. We served grilled hotdogs & turkey brats with toppings, beans, broccoli cauliflower salad, fruit, and chips & dip.
 |
| ^^My mom's friend Michelle came to help get ready for the party and serve food.^^ |
 |
| ^^I thought all the food was delicious!^^ |
Cake was served in the dining room. My mom got three big cakes from Costco - two white and 1 chocolate.
The beverages were in the living room. There was water, coffee, and an apple punch.
We had lots of seating around. Inside people could sit around the dining room table and in the living room.
We set a few tables up outside on our front porch and patio.
 |
| ^^Red, white, and blue skittles were on each table.^^ |
Now, Thomas will be joining me down at Iowa State. And, I'm really excited that he is!!
