The end to this journey...Carrie's Graduation!


Well, this grad weekend had come to a close with Carrie's family going home tonight and tomorrow. The graduation was alittle rainy, then cloudy at first but was awesome because it stopped and the sun even popped it's head out. It was a typical ceremony and nice photo opp after with MANY friends and family and a fresh lei to boot. Carrie looked happy...as did we all!

After that we went home to finish the cooking and decorating for the party. It was the usual, too much food, but was nice and well worth the effort. Then we talked and hung out. The family started yet another spirited game of Bocce ball. Very fun.

It was FABULOUS the day after saturday's graduation and the long day of cooking to preparing for the party to sleep in until 10am and wake up to Carrie's mom making waffles. MMMM!!! Definitely a day of rest that we all needed.

All in all, this was a nice time to hang out with Carrie's parents again (love them), and I met many of her other relatives. Carrie seemed to have enjoyed her weekend...and this was her weekend. To celebrate her accomplishment which are:

Bachelor of Arts in both degrees of Business Administration and Accounting.

She worked very hard for 2 degrees and deserved everything this weekend so I hope that it worked out the way she had hoped. I'm sure it did. I mean she did get her FAVORITE ice cream, FAVORITE cookies, and exact menu requested. Couldn't ask for much more than that huh?

Congratulations Carrie! I'm very proud of you....
