Pomp and Circumstance!

Congratulations Class of 2010! This has been a very full May celebrating with my 2 favorite graduates this year.

William Rushton Syphurs

Hoover High School

Sam Mathis DeVane

Ensworth High School

I began babysitting for Rushton when he was 3 years old. The Syphurs went from being the family I babysit for to being a second family for me over the years. I am so proud of Rushton and Alyssa and can’t wait to see what God has planned for them for the future.

Rushton graduated from Hoover High School (where I am also a graduate) on Thursday night. The best moment of the night was seeing him walk in with his class with a smile that had such a sense of accomplishment and pride. That night is one of my new favorite “Rushton memories!”
Our celebration of Rushton’s graduation continued on Saturday. It was a great time for everyone who loves Rush to gather together just to let him know how proud we all are of him.

Congratulations Buddy!

Mom, Dawn and I traveled to Nashville on Saturday afternoon to see my cousin Sam graduate from Ensworth High School. I love any opportunity to spend time with my family and being able to celebrate with Sam made the time even better. Sam’s graduation had to be moved indoors to Lipscomb University due to the possibility of inclement weather. I have to say it was one of the liveliest graduation ceremonies I have been to and I loved it. The friends and families of the students at Ensworth were truly there to celebrate all they had accomplished. Listening to the speeches made by the four student speakers reminded me of high school…actually they made me miss high school.

We then had a delicious dinner hosted by Sam and Denise at their house following the ceremony. It was a special night to celebrate and create new memories for our family. We ended the weekend with the perfect southern family breakfast this morning at Loveless CafĂ©….amazing!!
As we ate breakfast Denise said that this weekend went just how she had imagined it and couldn’t agree more. It was a great time from Saturday to Sunday!

Great Aunt Jerri loves all of her nephews!

Baby James (Nolan and Olivia) and Baby Kate (Matthew and Courtney) will both be here soon!
