our graduate of 2012...

 We had a fabulous 4 days!!!!

Candice flew in Wednesday night, finally arriving at 3 am, 

she was a tad bit late due to those amazing thunderstorms that only Dallas can produce,

(cuz everything is bigger in Texas!)

we got three hours of sleep and were up and at 'em for a 7 am hair appt.
with the famous Pollyanna,

 she worked her magic and Candice looked just as beautiful as ever!

 Caitlyn graduation ceremony started at 10 am and I thought it was a beautiful ceremony,

we are so proud of her,

 for all of her accomplishments and the trials that she overcame being the new girl in a new school for her senior year!

Did I mention how heartwarming it was to have Cj here and for all of us to be together again as a family!

It did my heart good,

and

each night I would lay in bed and just thank Heavenly Father for the overwhelming feeling of gratitude I felt that we were all under one roof again.....

(9 months is a long time to be apart)

we were grateful for our cute Breanne and Rylee who just graduated themselves the week before,

but came to show some luv'en...

and, of course,

cuter than cute grandparents!!!!

 and Caitlyn's shoes were to die for,

with Caitlyn........ it's.all.about.the.shoes!

WE HAD A GREAT DAY!
