Our journey to Jaclyn's college graduation began with our trip to visit my sister Robin and her family in southern NC. It took us 13 hours to get there with just one stop for a gas, food, and bathroom break. We spent Saturday and Sunday visiting with them - playing some football and going to church.
We left NC for Pensacola on Monday. We made that trip in 10 hours with one stop again for gas, food, and bathroom break. When we arrived in Pensacola, we meet with Lizzy's student advisor that afternoon concerning her course of study to no resolution. Because of a change in her major after her first semester from Graphic Design to Studio Art, she will need to go an extra semester.
On Tuesday, we attended Jaclyn's nurse pinning ceremony. Later that day we attended some commencement contests with the kids.
The main reason for our traveling arrived Wednesday, May 8 at 9:30 am. Four years of hard work culminated in the 30 second walk across the stage for Jaclyn as she received her BS in Nursing.
After graduation, our family, my sister Rachelle's family, my parents, Tammy's parents and brother, along with the girls' boyfriends all headed to Orange Beach, AL where we rented two condos on the beach for the week. We spent our days sitting and walking on the beach and playing volleyball,Texas Hold'em and PassPhrase during the evenings. On Sunday, we attended church by walking there on the beach.
On Tuesday, Jaclyn and her boyfriend Blake headed to OR to visit with his family for two weeks. Everyone else headed home Wednesday morning. Most of us making it there by Thursday.
Concerning Jaclyn's future career plans, she has a scheduled phone interview with a hospital in VT near my parents and a second interview with a hospital near our home.
