Graduation

Well, I did it!

I graduated.



I finished with a B.A. in English Writing a minor in Leadership, both with honors.



For now... I'm content.

I want to get a master's in speech language pathology.

We'll see!



The ceremony was fun and exciting (is that what you call it when the kid singing the national anthem is awful and forgets the words? and when the announcer says "transmissions" instead of "transitions"?)

The day started out so cold, but by the time the ceremony started it was hot! Gabe even got a little sunburnt. Oops...

After lunch we headed downtown to the Cheesecake Factory to celebrate.

While we were there, I saw my girlfriends Susie, Kelsey, and Erin downtown for happy hour.

On Sunday, the fam headed to church and then we got to see the Ports:



their new baby girl Riley:



and our best friends Phil and Rebekah Johnston and Phil's parents!



It was awesome... I only wish we could've spent more time with them and that Aaron was able to be there.

Oh well, here's to a year of relaxation!
