BB Riverboat

On Saturday Big Sis, the in-laws and I went to a graduation party on the BB Riverboat (Daddy stayed home with Little Sis since it was during naptime). Big Sis had a blast! It was the largest of the riverboats, and for 2 hours it went up and down the Ohio River. Their was a banjo player who became fast friends with Big Sis (she danced to his songs). He has a granddaughter who shares the same name as Big Sis.

The food was good (fried chicken, shrimp, pork barbeque, corn, rolls, potato salad, coleslaw, cookies, brownies) and we had the perfect weather- a slight breeze, yet sunny. Big Sis ran all over the boat, up and down the stairs. I can't remember the last time she had this much fun.

Later that night we went to the country club for the graduation...I'll post photos of that later.

Glad Big Sis had such a great time! I must admit I have never known anyone to have anywhere near as elaborate a high school graduation party! My wedding was a MUCH smaller affair! Actually I've never had a graduation party myself, and I've graduated a few times, LOL! Well like you said must be nice to have soooo much money. :-)
