On Saturday, May 7 my brother graduated with his masters in sports administration from Illinois State. We had big plans for the weekend and lots of visitors. Most of the family was arriving on Friday so we hosted a cookout at our house then Saturday we went to the graduation ceremony at noon, took Ally to moms hotel room for a nap then had a nice family dinner in downtown Bloomington. Uncle Mark, Grady and Aunt Kelly stayed at our house and Ally had an absolute blast with them! She was so excited to have people in the house to play with all her toys and chase her around and it was even better when she discovered that they were still there when she woke up Saturday and Sunday morning. Grandma Marilyn, Grandpa Jack, Grandma Sandy and Grandpa Paul made the trip and stayed in a near by hotel while Mom, Dew and Dad stayed near Corey in Bloomington. It was so great to have everyone here since only the immediate family got to see Corey at his undergraduate ceremony. The weather was beautiful and while the ceremony was long, Ally did fairly well and she loved running around outside while we took some pictures. No one ever expected for us to live close together so we were happy to have so many people visit at once. We are all so proud of Uncle CoCo! We captured the important pieces of the ceremony but its sort of long.- he actually gets hooded around the 3:10 mark.
