Graduation

Yea! We made it to graduation day! By last Wednesday (December 9) I had all of my assignments completed and turned in. What a relief! My parents came in to town on Friday afternoon. They picked up Ella Grace and Major from school and took them to a Christmas activity on campus at one of the museums. We had a good evening, but it was to bed early because graduation started at 9:00am.
After I walked, then exited for pictures, I didn't return to the coliseum floor. Yep, I skipped out on the remainder of graduation. My parents, Jeremy's parents and the four of us went to eat lunch at a local Italian restaurant, one of my favorites. Good thing we were there early because it filled quickly after graduation was over.
After lunch our parents had to return home. But, we made a quick stop at a local jewelry store. My WONDERFUL husband bought for me the BEST birthday/graduation/Christmas presents EVER!! Yea! So excited! He gave me a pearl necklace and earrings. Yes, I am still beaming and I think I've worn them everywhere except Wal-Mart so far!

We work together and also started school the same time. I think we pretty much confused everyone in our program because our names were the same and we worked in the same office. We were often just "the Lindsey's."
