Congratulations, Cousin Zack!

Today, we spent the whole day (after swimming!) in Tampa at Zack's graduation. We got there a bit early. Once they opened up the stadium (Mommy said there were 1,000s of people there), we got great seats in the 3rd row up. Shortly after, my cousins, their other grandparents and their mom and Eric came and sat with us.

We are all so proud of Zack. He graduated 8th in his class! He must be really smart because his class had a lot of people....maybe 500? Zack is going to Tulane in the Fall in New Orleans. I have never been there, but Mommy promised me that we will go visit...

After graduation, we went to the Melting Pot. I started to "melt", but incredibly, as tired as I was, I didn't melt down too badly. I didn't really nap except for maybe 25 minutes at the end of graduation and about an hour in the car on the way to Tampa. I tried a little of the cheese fondue and otherwise, played by myself with the Graduation Program. For some reason, I love anything made of paper (books, newspaper, graduation programs, etc.). I fell asleep at the end of dinner (10:00 East Coast time!), but then woke up in time to get in the group picture. It was a beautiful photo for Zack to remember his graduation day.

Hooray for Zack! Here are some pictures from the day

Swimming Before Graduation

Grandma and Mommy took me to the pool at the hotel before we had to get ready for Zack's graduation. I met some girls and as always, started babbling away...
