Graduation Twofer!

This past weekend was very busy! Arn turned 59, Meredith and Tyler both graduated from CU/Boulder, and it was Mother's Day. Val flew in from ND for the events. Meredith received a BA/Biology and Tyler received a BS in Architectural Engineering.
The smaller graduation ceremonies were on Thursday, May 6th. The weather was iffy but it was great that we had the handicap card which gave us great parking place. Meredith got to say a couple of sentences of thanks at hers (held outside in a tent). She got the summer job she wanted which is a lab research assistant. She'll get to do a little traveling to collect field specimens to Flagstaff, Az. and Woodland Park, Co. She will also still work at Whole Foods til it closes. Tyler's small ceremony was in the evening. He's taken a job offer with Schumberger, an oil company, and will start this fall. Houston, Oklahoma, and Louisanna willl all be explored. I think his title will be Jr. Field Engineer. Both ceremonies were very nice and I'm glad they both chose to participate. We went to The Med in between for drinks and apps. Friday morn was the large deal at Folsom Stadium at 8:30 in the morn. Arn and I stayed in Longmont. Stacy and Bea had come up on Thurs. and took Grandma back to Monument that night. We had some ice and snow but the weather warmed up. It was a great ceremony but we're glad we got a two for one. We hit the OPH afterwards and then back to Monument. The next day we had a party at the house. The Lenski's, UJ, Lahnerts, Banks, Stan and Bea, Miranda, and Chris and Maren all came. The weather was cool but the party was fun. So proud of all my kids! Watch for a hulahoop post later!
