Graduation

{May 16, 2015}

Today Marc walked with his class as a Dentist!!! It was so so crazy to think we had finally reached the end! The last step for him to receive his diploma! It was a whirlwind in so many ways...emotionally, trying to get everyone ready and there early, knowing we had to hand over our keys just hours later and everything that comes with that! 

Our last family picture in front of our Omaha town home. 

We got there early enough to pick the perfect seats, get kids wiggles out, and take pictures before Marc had to give his gown back. 

So grateful that Marc's parents and sisters could be apart of it all'

This was the cutest picture! Grandma and Grandpa took the kids for a little while to give me a break.

Jordan loved the stairs

And millie and braxton knew exactly where they should lock themselves up at ;)

Such a good baby!!

There he is!!! The main man!! He GRADUATED!!! Creighton was good to us! 

The dental group sprayed silly string after it all and represented!!! It was so cool!

Marc and most of his RDEP group! Such a great group of men to be with for 4 years!

After the ceremony we rushed to change our clothes, ran to Texas Roadhouse for some lunch (our last time in Council Bluffs! We were regulars haha) and then over to Ted and Wallys for some yummy homemade ice cream! We sure packed a lot of fun into a few hours!

Afterwards we had to say our goodbyes and take the gang back to the airport! Then we had to go back home and pack the car, do last minute cleaning and say our goodbyes! Talk about BAWL FEST!!! It was so sad and surreal to be saying goodbye to what was our family for the last four years! We are so grateful for the time we had together and for the amazing it adventure it was living in Omaha, Nebraska!!

After we said goodbye and started driving, we realized we had left all of Braxtons meds in the house that we just said goodbye to and had locked!!! We had no key so we had to call our Maintainance guy Richard to open our house haha it was a great way to begin our trek to Albuquerque haha

Trying to make the most of our 13 hour drive...Marc all stickered up! I'm so grateful we moved our stuff a week ahead of time! We got to all make the drive to our new house together and I wanted it no other way! We got to reminisce on all the fun we had in Omaha and how much we would miss it! We talked about what our future holds, and what new adventures awaited us! 

We stayed at the same best western as before and got an early start the next day! We also hit a milestone with our car and hit the 100,000 mile mark! :)

Just passing time...millie trying out the binky. Haha it was a great ride to our new home and can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for us in Albuquerque!
