The Graduates.

Well hello there friends. I know that it has been far too long since I've updated this blog of mine. To say the least, life has been crazy this past month. But a good crazy. We are enjoying life here on the east coast and I can't wait to share what we've been up to! As for now I'm going to attempt to catch up. First, we graduated!! YAY! I still don't think that it's sunk in. Since Michael left before his graduation (and mine) we had 2 graduation parties on Saturday w/ the Adamson's and Sunday with the Sybrowsky gang. It was such a fun weekend. Thank you to everyone who came and celebrated with us. We felt so loved.

While we were at my dad's we took some maternity pictures of Somer. I'll have to post more later, they actually turned out pretty cute. (Update: Somer is no longer pregnant and I have a new precious baby niece Ada!)

Michael and I definitely got spoiled by our families for graduation. Again the Adamson's showered us with the most thoughtful gifts. We feel so blessed to have such awesome family. I am officially an owner of a Tag Heuer watch. The ultimate grad gift that graces every Sybrowsky girls wrist.

For those of you who don't know, my Michael is the biggest Duke fan you'll ever meet. Especially Duke basketball. So when I was thinking of what to get him for graduation naturally a Coach K signed picture came to mind. I was able to find one and get it framed for him. He was shocked! It was awesome.

Michael also outdid himself. I honestly thought that he didn't get me anything, with the move and last week of school I figured he'd just get me something after we got settled in DC. So, when he handed me a card I thought, "oh he'll just say I'll get you whatever you want when we get to DC." BUT, to my surprise as I opened the card something fell out. It was a wedding band!! I have just had my engagement ring for the past two years, I never felt deprived that I didn't have a band but for some reason outside of Utah if you don't have a band on everyone asks when you're getting married. When I worked in Georgetown last summer I got it at least twice a day. So now, I'm officially taken. It was so thoughtful and I'm so grateful for such a wonderful husband who I love so much.

I will have to do a whole other post about my graduation day. But, here I am. All grown up in my cap and gown. So weird.

And I totally know what you mean about the wedding band thing, everyone in Oregon asked me the same thing so we caved and got a band for me too. Not a bad excuse huh? ha ha. Keep the blogs coming :)
