Cheers to Graduation

Hello, blog world. Long time no write-sorry. On Saturday, May 12th, I officially graduated from college with my Bachelor's degree. Crazy to say. So, so crazy to write. I had an amazing time before, during, and afterwards. My family and best friend came up from Oklahoma and I also had several friends here stop by to visit. The morning of graduation I hosted a small, casual brunch at my apartment. The day started out rainy and early, as Eric and I woke up at 6am to get stuff ready because graduation was at 12:30. Brunch consisted of fruit, fancy crackers and fancy cheese, muffin-sized omelettes, cupcakes, pancakes w/blueberries on a stick, tomato & mozzeralla seasoned with basil on a stick, and mimosas! yummy :) Eric and I have had leftover fruit all week...which isn't a bad thing!

 Eric really wanted to get the fancy sausage that is next to the bananas. I guess it was popular cause there was none left!

Muffin sizzed omelettes.

Champagne. word :)

My grad hat that I decorared at the last minute. The "z' in the corner is for my friend, Zach. I've mentioned him before, but he passed away on the night of our high school graduation. I figured that the last time I made the walk across stage for graduation he was with me, so this time shouldn't be any different. There were only a few other people with decor on their hats. Sad, really lol.

We had TONS of flowers...and still do!

On our way to graduate!!!

I think Eric was really excited for this day-he decorated my car! So sweet :))

Eric got us a Hydrangea plant. I am obsessed with this flower!

Gifts from my on-campus boss. So thoughtful!

More flowers! I love my apartment right now.

My cake and cupcakes. Delicious!
