My sweet son-in-law Thomas is graduating from college this weekend and we are so excited to be celebrating with him! We are going to their home for the weekend to attend the graduation on Saturday and to take part in the celebration. We are so proud of Thomas! He has been working full-time and going to college. He is like the son that we never had and he is so good to my daughter. Thomas is a wonderful husband!!!
On Saturday night we are eating out at an awesome restaurant and Thomas' parents and brother are joining us too. It will be a fun weekend of making Thomas feel so special and loved!
Oh, and one last thing to celebrate. Tom and I will be having our 34th wedding anniversary on Saturday. We met in high school when we were 15 years old, so I feel like we have grown up together. We don't want to take away from Thomas, so our celebration will be low key.
Prayers and blessings to my blogger friend, Kat, whose daughter Bree is getting married on Saturday in Florida. I wish them all the best! Congratulations and best wishes to Bree and Jay. And Kat, you are going to be the prettiest Mother-of -the-bride ever!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
Love & blessings,
Melinda
