Graduation Weekend

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

We had Traci’s graduation from nursing school this weekend!  The entire family was there.  Matt’s and Traci’s parents drove from Jackson for the weekend.  Derek and Nichole flew in from Ft. Collins and Traci’s grandparents stopped by to celebrate.  Thursday night both parents and Traci’s grandparents were in town.  We went to a place called Goodwood BBQ.  Most everyone felt the need to order huge portions of ribs, so we had plenty left over to take home.  Derek and Nichole’s flight was late leaving Denver due to weather, so it was a late night for Jim and Traci, the taxi service sent to retrieve them from the airport.  The next morning Matt’s aunt and uncle drove up from Salt Lake to attend the ceremony.  Traci’s ceremony lasted 105 minutes.  It was fun having family in town for the weekend.  The weather cleared enough to make it enjoyable.  Traci got to do her power shopping with her mom and I was able to get new glasses.  Now Traci and I will have a bit of extra free time on out hands.  Traci will start studying for the boards and I will be doing anything to keep myself occupied.  We leave for a Nebraska visit on the 12th, so that will be exciting.  Hope to hear from all of you soon!!
