One Suprise-Filled Graduation Day.

The secret is out!

Greg's sister, Amy, and her husband Andrew decided to come surprise Greg for graduation! Isn't that awesome? And what's crazy is I didn't spill the beans even though I knew for a few weeks! Whew!

Greg's parents got here yesterday (finally) after an unplanned stay in Chicago. Amy and Andrew got here RIGHT before graduation today, after an unplanned stay in Charlotte last night. They were supposed to fly into Columbia but couldn't get here before graduation so we had them fly into Charlotte and our great friend Jonathan went and picked them up this morning. As Greg lined up to the stage, he looked over and saw his sister peeking out of the crowd! He had no idea!

It was a special day and in a few minutes our friends will show up to celebrate Greg by eating some cookies. Nom. Nom.




Amy and Andrew didn't have their suitcases in case you were wondering about the jeans. It makes it THAT much more awesome that they made it right when graduation started!

Sidenote: the smarter you get (degree-wise) the funnier you look. Greg has a hood now.

Oh and we gave Eli and honorary degree of "cutest baby ever", hence he got a hat.

Ha! Your dad-in-law took our pictures... we pulled him over and had him snap a few as he was haulin' down the sideway!! I thought he looked vaguely familiar...
