We did it!

I am so proud to now be alumni of the Virginia Tech College of Engineering!! Yayy!!

Our parents, siblings, and grandparents drove down on Friday and we had a little cookout in our little apartment. Kaiah was over the moon with everyone visiting her.

The University commencement ceremony was (un)fortunately canceled due to rain. I think its safe to say that everyone was quite pleased not to have to sit through the boring speeches. It was fun while it lasted, though, trying to find out parents in the stands, and trying to get them to spot us, which they never did. I think something about the uniform black cap and gown made it tough. :)

The next morning we had to wake up bright and early for the College of Engineering ceremony, at which even more family members were waiting. It was easy to spot them in the stands this time, partly because it was in Cassell, not Lane, and partly because there were so many of them! We were so grateful for our cheering section as we crossed the stage.

It was an amazing weekend, filled with a lot of rain and a lot of smiles. Now we are anxiously awaiting our graduation party next weekend!
