Here is Noelle shopping for Mother's Day! Here we are at my cousin Lindsay's on Mother's Day. Noelle loves the pool, her family and her Uncle Brian's motorcycle.
Noelle loves everything about the beach - the sand, the water (even though it was freezing), the birds, the shower, the trash and the umbrellas. In my opinion, it was way too exhausting but she sure had fun.
This past Sunday, April 29th I walked in my graduation. Last year I decided I wasn't going to even attempt making it to graduation because it was two days after my due date and I had one class that I would have to finish in summer. I opted to finish in the fall and hoped to return for the ceremony. It was really great to commemorate the hard work. Ryan was so supportive my entire time in seminary and knowing that it was important for me to celebrate graduation because it got lost in the move and Noelle's arrival (appropriately). Thank you Ryan and thank you mom, dad, grandma and grandpa, for supporting us so much through that final year and enabling me to finish! God was so faithful, what a great experience!
