Whew. Today I faced one of the ultimate fat burners out there. It’s called all the freakin’ steps at Little John Coliseum. I’ve always loved Little John, but I absolutely hate all those steps you have to walk up to get into the place. Well one side of the building has a grassy area and a few steps while the other side is what feels like 1000 steps from the parking lot to the coliseum. The “easy” side was roped off and reserved as handicapped parking (which I’m glad they did btw), so we had to hoof it with baby in tow (minus the stroller because there would be no where for it inside).
We were there for my little cousin’s graduation, and by the time we made it into the place we were all huffing and puffing so hard we had to sit down and rest for a good few minutes before anyone even said hello to each other. The graduation was nice, though, and even though it was one of the largest graduating classes the school has had the graduation was the shortest one I’ve ever been to. I took lots and lots of photos with my cell phone, but stupid me forgot my camera. I did play around with the panoramic option on my cell phone, though, and I’m pretty happy at how it turned out. The photos are only a little off in a couple places. I do think it turned out pretty well for a cell phone.

This is the last graduation we’ll be attending for awhile. Actually Ellie is the next one in line, so we’ll be there again in about 18 years. I admit I felt a little sad though because it reminded me that my 10 year reunion is in a couple weeks. Have I really been out of school that long?
After graduation we swung by the hospital to see my sister and the baby, and then we headed to my cousin’s after graduation cookout. We were out until almost 11pm after such a long day, so needless to say I’m completely beat now. I will be taking my head to meet my pillow as soon as Ellie has wound down enough to go to sleep.
