Graduation

Friday night on the lake Austin was a serene kick off to an otherwise crazy weekend. Preceeding that was two nights of back-toback work dinners and prior to that: a dinner with Mr. Price's classmates.

The rundown goes like this: after a beautiful sunset and stopping at a friends' house on the lake (where Matt, Kim & Madeleine were dining), we got take out from Hula Hut and ate in the boat. Afterwards: late night airport pick up of brother Ted - in from Tuscon.

Sat morning: the onslaught. Everyone arrives for lunch. I mean everyone: my fam, Price fam (NC, Dallas, Arizona and local contingencies present), my grandfather even drove in for the occassion (!), BJ Andrews (our sweet neighbor), Frank and Janie (our faux-parents). Lunch at our house catered by Santa Rita (yum) and none of the shorties fell in the pool (although Ava was throughly soaked. Everyone scattered after lunch at... um, 4:30. which was good since we were reconviening at 6 for wine and cheese prior to dinner at Fonda San Miguel (no shorties this time.)
