Graduations, weddings, etc

It's been another busy couple of weeks for Team Alex Rose. A long road trip (including her first ever true blow-out, not pictured for obvious reasons) to Santa Barbara for Uncle Nick's graduation; meeting Judy and Ron for the first time, seeing Great Uncle Norm (who as usual is behind the camera, not pictured), sitting through a long commencement ceremony with nothing but a boring speech and a toy giraffe to keep her entertained; then an even longer road trip home. The next night, she attended a Franklin family wedding for the first time, meeting new and old cousins and accomplishing yet another first -- spitting up directly into a half-full beer (not her fault).
