A Joyful Celebration

After 4 years and 3 different schools I am very excited and proud to say, I did it!!! I graduated with a Communications Major, emphasis in Public Relations. It was an amazing weekend. My super amazing grandma and dad were here. Brandon's great family also took the time out to celebrate this wonderful achievement with me. I was very excited for the shopping and the cute graduation dress I was going to get. Thanks to Jennifer and my grandma, we almost bought the entire store. I now have clothes that will last my entire pregnancy. ( not to mention, how stylish and cute each piece is!) It was such a happy day for me, especially being with family. My dad was so wonderful and hosted a beautiful Thai lunch at the #1 Thai Restaurant in Southern California. We outdid ourselves with noodles, curries, stir fries and the best of all sticky rice and mango. Thanks Dad!!! I was a little bit scared as to what Brandon's family might think of Thai food since they never have had it before, but they absolutely loved it. Brandon's dad said, "it was the best meal of his life".

The day was wonderful except for the scorching heat. I graduated in 103 degree weather. I felt so bad for all of the people who were the last to go. By the time everyone had gone through they started leaving. There was no one to watch the last three rows go through. ( l left, but my professor told me that pregnant ladies shouldn't be in this heat. it was great to have that excuse).

I forgot to mention one last thing. The best gift that was given to me ever. The clothes, flowers and presents were of course wonderful, but it doesn't beat the pregnancy massage Brandon gave me. I will be going to the #1 rated spa in Orange County for a day of pampering. I am so excited and can't wait to go. I will be able to soak in salt bathes and get manicures, pedicures and than a relaxing massage for the baby and me. I can't wait. Happy Graduation to me!!!!
