Jordan, the Graduate!

We have a graduate on our hands!!!! Today was the day! And it was awesome! Jordan graduated from Our Lady of the Lake College with a Master of Science in Nurse Anesthesia this afternoon. He's FINISHED with school! Congratulations, Jordan!

Claire looked and looked for Dad while he was sitting down, but she never found him until he was walking out at the end of the ceremony - and they both saw each other! It was very cute! 

I got to sit by Kelly. I love Kelly. 

 He graduated!!!!! 

So many family members came to support Jordan. We've got Steve, Chris, Stephen, Liz, McKinley, and Lou.

We've also got my parents, too! Thanks for coming, everyone!

Proud parents!

A good-looking bunch of siblings!

Grandpa played Ring Around the Rosies with the girls. Too cute!

Brian and Jordan

Kelly, Brian, Jordan, and me - We're going to miss these guys! They are headed to Michigan in the morning.

After graduation, we had a little party with some jambalaya and red beans & rice from Sammy's. (Has anyone tried their cheese sticks? I hear they're pretty good!)

We also had a delicious strawberry cake. I looked for graduation plates for the cake, but I didn't find any; I think I found a good substitute, though!

Where did the cake go?

Oh, there it is! 

The happy graduate!
