Graduation Weekend

We had a wonderful graduation weekend!! Grandma, Mom, and Julie came to help Jess and I celebrate our graduations. They all arrived Friday night in time for supper and the Spring Concert (which, by the way, was beautiful!). We spent the evening after the concert enjoying drinks from the Daily Grind and socializing with our friends who would be leaving the next day. :( Of course, we all stayed up too late and morning came very quickly. I was apparently a little anxious about the Ceremony because I had several dreams Friday night about forgetting to go, being late, and (horror of horrors!) showing up with BROWN shoes instead of BLACK shoes and not realizing it until everyone was marching out and it was too late to switch them!!!! Hahaha! :D My family got reserved seats, and thankfully they were some of the best seats in the house! Julie and Jordan got lots of great pictures of the ceremony. :) After all the festivities were over, we ran home, grabbed some lunch, and then headed off to Green Bay! We spent a few hours shopping in the mall and then went to eat at a wonderful Mexican restaurant before coming home. On Sunday we all got to go to church together and enjoyed some "special" music. ;) We girls treated Mom and Grandma to lunch to celebrate Mother's Day and then Mom, Julie, and Jess left for MN. :( Grandma stayed for one more night, though, so we had fun spending time together at Walmart and then at home!

Here's a little video I took while we were at the restaurant. Jordan was busy watching baseball or golf or something; but I managed to get a side-glance and smile from him! ;)
