Blair and Cynthia's Gradutation

After a grueling 24-hr drive from Southern Utah to Dallas, Texas, Jay and I unpacked the car and repacked our suitcases to head to Ft. Lauderdale for my brother's graduation from Dental School and his girlfriend's graduation from Optometry School (thankfully, it was only one graduation ceremony.) My little sister was able to fly in for the weekend, and my parents joined us as well. It felt like a good old-fashioned family vacation, minus the boring bits.Tessa and defied gravity and science to go parasailing (I'm telling you, it's black magic)
We drove through the Florida Keys and stopped at Robbie's Marina to feed the tarpon.
These tarpon and huge and hungry. They will snatch the little fishies right out of your hand.
My dad was brave, but my mom stared those tarpon right down and showed them who's boss.
We are so incredibly proud of our smart brother, Doctor Blair!
A proper family picture. As per usual, my dad's eyes are closed.
Beach time with my little TJ.
Our most favorite matching, monogrammed beach towels :)
Out at the Cheese Shop for dinner. Dr Cynthia, Dr Blair, Dad with his eyes closed, and my lovely mother.

Overall, a great weekend! I loved being able to spend time with my family and to see such a huge milestone for Blair and Cynthia.

And now, back to reality in Dallas. Stay tuned.
