These pictures are not in any sort of order, but I'm fully confident that you'll be able to put the pieces together.
The week of graduation was a very fun and busy one. Glenn's family slowly trickled in a week before the actual day of graduation. Shad came first, then Rachel and her parents, and the day before Keisha was able to make it. My parent's came a few days before graduation too. AND, amongst all of that, I got a fun visit from my friend Karey, who I got to spend a very fun day with. Unfortunately, I only took pictures of her with my phone, and I can't figure out how to get them on here.
I didn't take many pictures of the week, but we had a lot of fun. We took Glenn's parents to The Pop Shop for our favorite grilled cheese sandwiches, Glenn's mom and sister got to check out a family gravestone, and my parents got to see Longwood Gardens.
The day of graduation I was so concerned with everything going smoothly that I pulled out my Type A personality (something that makes a rare appearance), and typed out an actual itinerary of where we were going to be and at what time. Yeah, I became that person.
We started out the morning at the Smorgasbord in Lancaster. I have to be honest, I know it's become a Pennsylvania treasure, but I was relieved that it was our last visit. My stomach was not happy with me. Afterward we all cruised Kitchen Kettle and the surrounding gift shops. Then we all ran home to change and drove to graduation.
Like most people, I don't get terribly excited to sit through a graduation, but considering what this one meant, it was pretty awesome. I think I was smiling through the entire thing. I can't even tell you how proud I was of Glenn to accomplish something as difficult as it was without hardly ever complaining. It also meant so much to me to be surrounded by family who had flown all that way to support us.
After the ceremony, we all drove back to our place for subs and dessert. I was literally flying high after such a successful day and so grateful at what good sports everyone was for going along with such a packed day.
