Graduation Week in Four Acts--Prologue


Loved ones, I’d like to introduce you to this handsome fellow:

Technically, "these" handsome fellows



You and I first met him when he was, “Mr. P.”  But now, through hard work and dedication, he has earned a new title: “Dr. P.”


Would you like to hear about our rambling graduation week and the events that lead to my husband graduating with honors from medical school?  Before you say yes, be warned:  there will be [whatever the digital equivalent of bushels, is] pictures. 


Beaucoup pictures.


A Pagan’s dozen* worth of pictures. [*To clarify, in terms of pictures, this quantity ranges from 10-100; in terms of cookies, a Pagan’s dozen = 8.]


I’ll break the documentation of festivities up into four posts because I want to try to capture as many memories in detail from graduation week as possible.  It was so memorable and special—I want to be able to look back on these posts and remember all of the love, excitement, and fun that we got to share with our friends and family. 


I think I can dispense with the disclaimers now.  The forthcoming posts are likely to be lengthy and sentimental.  I won’t fault you if you decide to skip the text and just enjoy the pictures.
