Mom's Graduation

My mom graduated with her Master's degree in Nursing this weekend.  We got to celebrate her accomplishment by having a girl's weekend with Aunt Cee-Cee, Jamie, and Rylie (and baby Jacob).  Deborah was so great to take the boys for the weekend, not easy!  That woman is a saint, I'm telling you.  I've decided that we need to do this once a year - I needed this.  I think we all needed it!

On Friday, we had the assignment to find mom a cute graduation outfit.  We were successful!  And I'm kicking myself that I didn't get a picture of her in it, because she looked smoking hot!  It was a fun day of shopping, lunch & mani-pedi's.  Little Jacob was so good.  He was so good the whole weekend.  It probably helped that he wasn't put down for even a millisecond.  We also had lots of vegging time.  We had a Mr. Selfridge marathon. 


Mom graduated from Point Loma Nazarene University which is situated overlooking the ocean.  So beautiful.  The weather was perfect and the constant ocean breeze felt amazing.  I can see why people live in San Diego.  Paradise.

You can see the ocean behind the theater.  There's mom receiving her diploma.  She said we were the loudest cheering squad.  I made sure to yell, "That's my mommy!"  When I was five, I yelled that when she graduated LVN school.  I think I set a trend because after that, we heard random, "That's my son!"  "That's my baby!"

Danny is also a saint.  He cooked, cleaned and ran errands for us.  Thank you Danny!

Oh sweet Jacob. I so enjoyed our time together.
