Congratulations Tara, Wedding and Reunion update

I want to start this off by saying CONGRATULATIONS to Tara for passing her Dental Assisting Boards today!!! Sean and I are so proud of you!!! As soon as we are home for good in December we will go out and celbrate!
Well last weekend was crazy for us. We ended up spending 30+ hours in the car. Our trip started out well. By the time we hit Nashville, the weather was awful. The upside of this is that we got to spend about 45 mins looking at the Batman building (the Amsouth Building) which means that we knew we were home. My mother made it into town inspite of her car acting up. Sean and I spent the night with some great friends of ours. I finally got to see their little boy. He is so cute and full of personality.
Friday morning my mother and I left to drive back to Ozark. We were a little later getting there than what we wanted, but still plenty of time before the meet and greet and the football game. The meet and greet was good. There were not as many people from our class there as I thought there would be. I did get to meet the fiance of a good friend of mine. They will be getting married the day after I graduate from SWBTS. I guess the football team wanted to help us relive our football game memories from high school that night b/c they lost. Carroll did not have a great team when we were there. I decided to sleep in the next morning instead of going to the class picnic. That afternoon my mother and I went to the mall and I got to do some browsing and shopping in one of my favorite stores (BAMA FEVER).
That night Sean drove in and we went to the reunion dinner. I was amazed at how little somethings have changed in the past 10 years. Many people there have not changed their life styles one bit. There were others who have changed a great deal for the better. I was voted the least changed. At first I was not sure if I should be honored or insulted, but in the end I was Ok. The votes were based on looks, so in that respect I was good. I guess I still pretty much look like I did the day we graduated. It was great to see some old friends again. I loved getting to meet boyfriend, fiances and spouses. It will be interesting to see what everyone is up to when we meet for our 20th in 2016.
Sean said that the wedding Saturday morning was sweet. He hated that I couldnt be there. He said that once Robb and Stacy were pronounced husband and wife that they walked back down the isle to the Sesame Street theme song. The happy couple was spending the night in Cookville, TN at a bed and breakfast and then they were headed off to Ashville, NC for the rest of the week.
The trip home was good. Sean and I decided to take a small detour at the Boardwalk in Shreveport, LA. We stopped to do a little bit of shopping and dinner. We did not make it back to our place until after 11:30p Sun night. We stayed up until almost 1a working on my group presentation for the next morning. I got up early Mon and then met the rest of my group around 10:30a and we gave our presentation at noon. I think it went well. We recieved some good feedback from some of our class mates. Sean and I both had to work that day. Needless to say when we got home Monday night we ate dinner and crashed.
As soon as I get my film developed I will post pictures from the weekend. I hope that yall have a wonderful week!
