Yesterday I proudly walked across that stage and received my stinkin' college degree! Can I say surreal? I took a deep breath and I felt such a release! All of the stress of college is gone forever. I love it!
It was such a special day, yet an exhausting one for the whole family! My little brothers prom was also last night, so he was not able to attend. But, the rest of my family came and some of my sweet, sweet Sam girls came, too. It meant the world to me!
Right after graduation my parents had to split and head to Kev's prom stuff. Bless their hearts, they were up all night (12-6) helping at SNAP (Senior Night After Prom). I was sad to miss Kev all dressed up, but you clearly can't be everywhere at once.
Since my parents we going to be gone all night, instead of me sitting at home alone, I spent the night with my Sam girls! It seemed so appropriate to spend such that night with such a special group of girls. We had a blast. After graduation we headed to none other than Chuy's! I love me some good ole' Mexican food and that definitely hit the spot. We had a blast there and laughed our heads off! We then headed to a hotel close to my house. It was so fun to spend the night with some of the most precious friends that I met while in college. It was a super ending to such a wonderful chapter in my life. We of course had much to talk about, and had some major laughs. These are the times that I will miss. I know they will continue to happen, but I know they will be few and far between.
We also went and saw What Happens In Vegas! HILARIOUS! I, of course, had a partial love to the movie since I just returned from Vegas. It was great!
All in all, my day was wonderful. I can't believe I have a college degree. I truly don't feel old enough, but at the same time I was so ready to have it!
I can't express enough to my friends and family how much I appreciate the support they gave me during that chapter of my life. It is overwhelming. I truly could not have done it without y'all! So, from the bottom of heart, I hope you hear and know how much I absolutely adore, appreciate and love you!
Enjoy some pictures of such a memorable day! And please, excuse the not-so-lovely cap and cap hair. :)

Oh, congratulations, dear! I wish I could have been there with yall. But TWO more classes for me... so summerI here I come. But August will get here for me soon enough- and I can't WAIT to feel that 'release' you were talking about. I made such huge steps in my personal life while still in college--- so I can't wait to feel that accomplishment that you speak of. So, where to now? Congrats from the bottom of my hearts... and good luck too. xo

I stopped by Shelley's blog to see if she was still MIA and God prompted me to visit you as well!
Glory to Him for giving you the strength and perseverence to get through college!
