I don't get to see my family often enough. I don't ever seem to get up to Detroit where they all live and they don't get down here to Charleston.
The day before we left Detroit was my nephew Eddie's high school graduation open house. Still not sure why they waited until August to celebrate a June graduation, but because they did wait, I got to attend.
Here's Eddie with his cake. (click photos for larger view)

Me with my two brothers. Ed on the left and Claude on the right. I make sure everyone knows I'm their MUCH younger sister. Actually, I'm 6 years younger than Ed and 4 years younger than Claude.

Claude's middle son, Paul, wasn't able to attend the party.
It's always fun to see everyone. I really need to visit more often.
