Graduations Galore

My graduation ceremony was on Friday, May 15th. It was a small ceremony consisting of only Baylor Business graduate students. I graduated with three of my M.S.Eco peers, all of whom are from China. My family came down for the ceremony, which was less than an hour and included dinner afterwards so my brothers didn't have too much to gripe about :)

My friend Laura came too! The icky velvet-looking thing across my neck is my graduate "hood". It's much prettier from the back. The graduation was called a "Graduate Hooding Ceremony" and we each received our respective hoods.

Unfortunately, Kolby's brother graduated from law school at the exact same time as my graduation ceremony. Because Kolby's entire family and extended family was gathering in Houston for Kason's graduation, it made sense for Kolby to be there, especially since he had to miss Kason's college graduation a few years ago.

Here is a picture of part of the gang after Kason's graduation ceremony.

We spent this past Memorial Day weekend in Austin celebrating Kolby's sister's graduation from the University of Texas. I don't have any pictures yet, but it was a great weekend and Kassidy is now getting ready to start graduate school for social work!
