Thursday morning kicked off my long weekend! I had a job interview for an entry level position with Integrity Applications Incorporated. I was super nervous but Toby stayed up the night before with me and helped me practice interview questions. Thankfully, they asked me every question he helped me practice! The interview went really well and I got the job offer the next day!
After I left the Interview, I picked my dad up from the airport. Toby and I gave him a tour of Trinity, then we met my sister Courtney and my dad's wife Vicky at Bull Run Winery. We went out to dinner and then it was time for graduation! My mom and my other two siblings met us at the Patriot Center. The ceremony was long and boring, but it felt good to walk across the stage and know I was done with college! That night, my family all gave me graduation presents which was so sweet. I was so thankful for their thoughtful gifts! Then, Toby surprised me with a present as well. He got me a CAMERA! It is so great. He got me a Canon EOS 6D and everything to go with it, including a lens. Over the last two years I have been learning about photography at work and in school and now I have my very own camera to practice with! They all spoiled me so much. It was a great night!
The following day, I woke up and had coffee outside with my mom. Whenever we go down to visit her, we always have coffee in the morning before everyone wakes up so I was glad we could do that here. Toby and I gave her a tour of the school as well and then everyone (minus Toby who had to work) headed up to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. It was a beautiful day to take pictures so my siblings and I all had a lot of fun taking pictures of everything. The aquarium was so fun! I was really glad we all got to go. When we got back, we went to Dogfish Head for dinner with Toby and Salzie. It was so fun to have everyone all together.
After dinner, my siblings, Toby and I met my dad at a place called Top Golf. Toby and my dad had been there earlier in the day and wanted to go back. It was a pretty cool place. It was a lot like a bowling alley but for golf. We hung out there for a couple of hours while the guys hit golf balls. Toby was getting really good by the end of it! Us ladies tried to hit a few, but we were terrible so we stuck to taking pictures.
On Saturday morning, my siblings and I met my dad and his wife at a pancake place for breakfast while Toby, my mom, and her boyfriend Gregg set up for my graduation party! RJ and I went over to help after we got back. Toby was so sweet. He literally planned and executed the entire party for me. The only thing I contributed was the email addresses. It was so much fun and lots of people came! I loved getting to introduce my family to all of my friends. It really was a great weekend and I'm sad that everyone had to leave yesterday.
It was seriously one of the best weekends! My family is so great and I loved having them all up here. Thanks to Courtney and Morgan for going around and taking pictures at the graduation party so that I could talk to people (and helping set up for everything), thank you Salzie for helping cook pizzas for everyone, thank you to RJ for coming early to help set up with me, and thank you Mom and Gregg for running errands for Toby and lastly, thank you so much to my incredible husband who went out of his way (and his comfort zone) to make my weekend awesome and make me feel so special. I love you all!
