The Weekend In Pictures

Mr. Sign received his Master's Degree (MBA) on Saturday at Ford Field where the Detroit Lions play. We got there very early and got the best seats in the house. We were sitting in the end zone right in front of where the goal post goes.

This is what the layout looked like before all the graduates came in:

and after:

Here is daughter #2, Mom and step dad:

The processional began with bagpipes and the color guard bringing in the flags:

My parents with Mr. Sign in front of Comerica Park where the Detroit Tigers play. Ford Field and the Park are located right next to each other:

Me, Mr. Sign and #2. #1 is at orchestra camp until Sunday so
she missed all the excitement:

Here is the food table. Mr. Sign had his party with a friend from his learning team. She did the decorating (*rolls eyes, tacky, much?). Mr. Sign and I did all of the food. Who knew I was a caterer?

I had the brilliant idea of doing Mexican food. It turned out awesome! People could make tacos, nachos, burritos or taco salad. The crowd was pleased with my choice.

Here is a picture board I made for Mr. Sign.
His diplomas, gown and hood are here as well:


Here is the friend who had the party with us, Mr. Sign
and another person from his learning team:

Mr. Sign and me after 4 hours of catering,
entertaining and just being overly pleasant:

We figure that almost 100 people came to the party at my grandparents' pond. It's a great place, but does not have electricity and you have to use a hand pump outdoors to get water. We have learned to adapt and have had many parties with over 300 in attendance and all without the luxury of modern day conveniences. We like it that way.

I need to rest now.
