Miss Scrofani's Weekend News

My weekend was amazing! On Saturday, I did some errands. Normally, that would not be so much fun, but I really enjoyed getting out of the house and being in the car. I had to do errands because my sister is graduating today! It is going to be a virtual graduation, and she is coming over to watch it outside after our school day ends. She is going to wear a cap and gown and I bought decorations. After the errands, I sat outside in the sunshine and read a book before dinner.

On Sunday, my mom, sister, aunt, uncle, cousins and I sang happy birthday to my grandpa on Facetime. It was his 90th birthday! We were supposed to have a big party but it was postponed. This was my grandpa's first time using Facetime. He did a pretty good job! Next, I ate lunch outside to celebrate my future mother-in-law's birthday! I enjoyed my weekend because the weather was beautiful and I got to do a lot of celebrating. I can't wait until my sister's graduation today!
