This week was full of graduation festivities. I was busy babysitting all the Aichele boys, Sawyer, Clint, Adam, and Doug. We ate lots of good food and the boys of legal drinking age drank a lot of beer. Two kegs to be exact. You would have thought Clint was graduating with an undergraduate not a PhD. But both kegs were pony kegs as I like to remind the boys.
Clint was hooded on Friday and walked on Saturday. Both ceremonies were very nice, but it had to be the hottest day in May on Saturday, Clint was in his velvet robe, and we were sitting in the sun. Needless to say we snuck out early. I am very proud of Clint and all of his achievements. After the hooding we celebrated with El Tiempo (our favorite). After the graduation we had a big party. We decided to have the Taco Truck cater it. Tacos Del Gordo. We are not exactly sure what they mean by fat tacos, but we definitely felt fat after eating them. The food was delicious. They had tacos, quesadillas, gorditas, burritos, fajitas . . . They kept reminding us they could make us whatever we wanted. The funny thing about the taco truck was that we had been seeing them driving around the neighborhood for years. One day Clint and I tracked it down (it took a few days of work to figure out how to make contact) and were able to have them come out from there.
Sawyer had a blast with all the festivities. He decided to start pulling up this week and has not stopped since.

All the Aichele boys. After this weekend I think
The taco truck parked in front of our house. We just opened a tab and had people get what they wanted.
Sawyer was sad when the party was over.
Sawyer decided that the diploma was for eating.
Clint was walking through the Rice gates for one last time. This is some significant tradition that I don't understand.
