Graduation Weekend

Graduation weekend started off with Jeff and Linda and Mamaw and Pawpaw getting into town on Thursday afternoon.  Pawpaw treated all of us to dinner at Milton's.  The food was amazing and we had a great time!  


Emily was collecting sugar packets in her little pocket and she was daring any of us to take them away...ha!:)  


Pawpaw had Hannah cackling.  We actually got out the video camera so that we could record her sweet laugh.  Notice all the boxes in the back ground.:)  


Pawpaw also had Emily laughing.  He's just all around FUN!  


On Friday night, after graduation, Bert's sisters and mom gave him a graduation party.  They did such a great job planning everything....we all had great time!  Most of our small group was able to come and then a few other friends/family from the area.

Grandmama and Pawpaw blowing bubbles with Emily.  


At first Emily was coloring with a permanent marker ( I'm not even sure where she got this), but Aunt Alison quickly replaced it with washable markers so the coloring-on-the-table fun could continue!  


We had such a great time at the party!  We were so thankful to be able to see all of our Wake Forest friends one last time before we moved.

Saturday was a work day.  We cleaned the apartment from top to bottom.  EVERYONE pitched in.  Some people were cleaning, some were taking down shelving, some were packing, some were playing with Em and Hannah, but everyone was so helpful!  There were some things that couldn't be cleaned until all the boxes and furniture were out, but we were actually able to get a lot cleaned.  At the end of the day on Saturday I absolutely couldn't believe I forgot to take a single picture of everyone working so hard to help us.  We really are so thankful.  It was such a huge blessing and made moving day about a million times easier than it would have been.

It was a busy, but great weekend!  We had lots to celebrate and lots to be thankful for!
