Sunday afternoon


How's it going? It's Mother's Day afternoon,and I've had a nap. This week is going to be crazy busy, so I am going to go ahead and get a jump on it.

We had a great weekend. Friday was Lester's hooding ceremony. This is where he received his hood to wear over his gown that signifies he has earned his doctor's degree in pharmacy. It was a really nice ceremony, and to say that I am proud of him wouldn't quite do it.

After the the hooding, we all went out to eat. I think there were 14 of us altogether, all family, including my parents, Kedra's parents, Maddie's parents, my sisters, Ben, and Rebecca. We had a nice meal together and then parted ways.

Saturday was graduation day. It was such a nice day! Butler has a long graduation. It was about 3 hours and 15 minutes to be exact! It was in Hinkle Fieldhouse and was a very nice ceremony. The pharmacy students were near the end of 880 graduates, so we waited a long time to hear Lester's name called. It was a moment worth waiting for.

Last night we had a family party at Maddie and Lester's new place. It was a nice gathering. Enjoyable. Maddie did a great job of planning and executing the evening. Maddie is such a wonderful young lady. Lester certainly married up - ha ha. She worked so hard for the last 4 -5 years to help get Lester through school. Now it's her turn to take a little break.
