We arrived at the Reliant Arena at 9:00 in the morning, along with 9,000 other people!
The ceremony didn't start until 10:00 and Richard had the daunting task of saving 10 seats with Brooklyn, by himself. After listening to a long-winded speech given by a nun named Sister De-De, which included approximately 56 points, I finally received my unofficial diploma!!!
After the ceremony, we went to Spaghetti Warehouse! Since, my sister-in-law was also graduating at the same time my in-laws were unable to be there. My sister also had to photograph a wedding. But, my grandparents, Aunt and Uncle, brother, and brother-in-law were all there to celebrate with me!
Thank you, Harley for making me change your diaper TWICE while we ate lunch!
Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end! Brooklyn had been wonderfully behaved during the ceremony, however, lunch was a different story! These are the only photos that she would let me take!
Here is the cookie cake that I made!
To my family: Thank you so much for taking the time to celebrate with me!
To my parents and In-Laws: Thank you for watching Brooklyn and letting out Bo, so that I could attend classes while Richard was at work!
To my Husband: THANK YOU, for being so supportive and for reading my papers when I was brain-fried! I could not have done it with out you!
I now am the proud owner of a MASTER'S degree in Educational Leadership from the University of St. Thomas.
I graduated with a GPA of 3.97. I was so mad that I had one class with a A-, all the others were A's.
