Congratulations Abraham!

Our dear friend Abraham graduates this year and today was his graduation open house. We had a blast! Abby played with her cousins, Grace charmed everyone and I worked in the kitchen all night.
Abraham is a refugee from Liberia and came to the States when he was 11 years old. He couldn't read a stitch of English when he arrived and now he's graduated from high school. We are so proud of him!! He's been living with my parents and both of my girls ADORE him! Abraham and dad filling the ice chests with drinks for the party. It was a hot day and we had to refill them over and over.

Jodi and I were in charge of the kitchen. We had to keep the food hot, ready and moving. It became one HOT kitchen, but we had a great time.

Abraham is on the left side with some of his guests.

Grace stayed close to family, but still managed to charm everyone. And thanks Aunt Beth for the super cute outfit.
