Warning!!! Another post with LOTS of pics!!!
This weekend we thoroughly enjoyed celebrating our awesome daughter, who earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in Music -- Vocal Performance!
It all started with the 400+mile trek through west Texas, to Sul Ross State University in Alpine!
We frantically gathered Saturday morning and anxiously awaited the commencement of the ceremony.
The cheer squad was poised and ready to make some NOISE!!!
The graduate made her appearance and that smile melted my heart!
She graduated with Honors, Cum Laude, and recieved gold cords from the Provost.
Then, received her diploma from the University President!
Walking back to her seat! She was ALL SMILES!!!
The group pic after the ceremony:
Followed by a pic with her MVP, Most Valuable Professor!!!!
On the way to the reception, we picked up her doggie daughter and Toby! They may have been excited too!
We then had a wonderful lunch reception with the whole gang!!
All in all, it was a terrific celebration throughout the weekend! We had lots of quality time with the friends and family who were able to make the long trip, laughed way too much!, ate way too much!, some of us drank way too much!, and none of us got enough sleep!! So I'd call that a SUCCESS!
Who knew in 2009 when we took a train to Alpine to visit the Big Bend National Park with myself, two other moms, one grandma, and 9 kids among us...that Kasey would end up LOVING this area and become so attached to it, that she now calls it HOME!
ÜBER PROUD PARENTS!!!
