Residency Graduation Celebrations - Friday

Andy had a few seminars to attend on Friday, so the kids and I stayed busy by meeting up with Nina, Marie's best friend from Holy Cross School in Sioux City.
We played at a park and had a picnic at the "Big Pencil" aka Floyd Monument.
They were so happy to play with each other again.


We were all ready for some resting that afternoon.
After a nap, more swimming of course!  
Then it was time to get dressed up for Andy's Graduation Ceremony.
Grammy, Papa, and Grandma Nel joined us for the evening. 
Andy did a great job with his speech and he also accepted 2 awards - 1 for being the Chief Resident for 2014-2015, and 1 for his teaching of medical students when they rotate through the residency program. 


 Marie and Bennett went home with Grammy and Papa while Brooks stayed back with Grandma Nel at hotel. Andy and I enjoyed an evening out with our friends to celebrate his big accomplishment.
We are so proud of Andy and it's unbelievable to think that we are completely done with his medical school journey.
It was rough and bumpy but it has brought our family even closer. Andy works so hard at his career choice and I know he is such a good and passionate physician.
