My Abuelo (Grandpa for all you non-Spanish speakers), my Titi (Auntie) Nina, my Titi (Linda), and my cousins Jeremiah & Manny all came in to GA for graduation. I was extremely happy that family came to visit me, however I will admit considering that I come from a family which consists of eight aunts & uncles + numerous cousins, it was a let down that so few of my family members made the effort to come to visit me. With that said, I made the best of celebrating my graduation & it definitely paid off. Immediately after graduation, we set off to find somewhere to eat lunch at. We headed over to Macaroni Grill, but as soon as we got into the parking lot I decided that I really wanted to head to my favorite restaurant ever, Carrabba's!!!!! lol. When we went there we ironically saw Davis (Mr. "Good-bye Forever") and his family eating dinner. I had all my favorites fried zucchini and calamari. Then I tried a new dish which I didn't really care for (lol that's what I get for not sticking with wh
at I know). But overall I was so happy for the food, family & fellowship. At lunch, I received the first of my graduation presents, a card with some $$ from Abuelo & a card with some money from my immediate family. Then we headed home to get ready for my other graduation parties. I had been invited to several & planned on bringing my family with me to several of them. The first party that we headed to was that of my next door neighbor's, Joe (left). His family set up a low country broil (which looked super yum, but I was still stuffed from Carrabbas) in the back yard complete with a festive white tent, lots of family members, and drinks (haha I sound like an advertiser). It was really good to see all of Joe's extended family members (Aunts, Uncles, Grandparent & cousins) as well as some neighbors who I only see in passing. After stopping to snap some pictures, swap grad gifts, and talk we headed of to the next party. Next we hopped into the car to drive over to Valerie's house, who lives down the street from me. I would have walked, but in this Georgia heat & painful grad heels
