Amber's graduation and birthday

Happy 22nd birthday and graduation day to our beautiful, sweet 
Amber Michelle 





On Thursday, April 19, the whole family went to lunch at Tera Mia.  Then Amber, Mike, Jordan, Ashlee, and I went to Amber's Commencement and Emily took Tyler and Brittany home to continue the baking and setting up for a surprise birthday and graduation party that we had planned for Amber.  


The party was a huge success.  We had pulled pork made by Jordan, rolls, salads, and desserts.  A lot of our extended family was able to make it and a few close friends.

The graduation ceremony was much longer than we thought.  Amber and Kimmie shared a cap and gown.  Amber's walking time was 8:00 and Kimmie's was at 11:00.  Right after Amber's name was called she came out, we took a quick picture and then I ran the cap and gown to Kimmie from the Smith Fieldhouse to the Wilkinson Center and got it to her just in time!  We were a little sad that Amber had to leave her graduation right after her name was called and that she didn't get to wear the gown for her pictures after, but at least we got a few.

Congratulations Amber.  We love you and are proud of you!
