Katie's UofA Graduation

A few weeks ago the whole Kahler family made the trip to Tucson for the weekend to watch Katie graduate from UofA.  It was so fun to watch her and hear all that she has accomplished in her 4 years of college.  Katie truly is amazing and we could not of been more proud of her.  Tatum had a great time looking up to cousin Katie, she is such a great role model for our girls!!

We left on Friday morning and headed to campus.  Obviously I went to ASU because I did not know how to spell McKale and instead of going to the McKale center we ended up at the Mchale's house, oops, silly me!!  After our minor detour we got to the arena and got set to watch Katie.  At this graduation she got to sit up on the stage and be recognized because she is such a smarty pants and got a million awards!!  We were so proud of her!!

After the graduation we went to our hotel.  We stayed at Casino Del Sol and we are so glad that we did.  The hotel was so nice and we really enjoyed it.  We decided to take the girls swimming and the pool was awesome!!
Splash pad fun!!

We had a nice dinner that night and got to spend some time outside with the whole family enjoying a nice evening.  The next morning we got up bright and early to get to the University Commencement.  Tatum was so excited to buy Katie some flowers to give to her and held them the whole time.  Both girls fell asleep as soon as the lights went down and the speeches started and they woke up just in time for the ending.  So I would say they both did really well that day!!

We got to go to Katie's apartment and have a nice lunch with all of her roommates and their families, it was great.  Other than the fact that Matt got really sick and spent the entire rest of the day and night in bed.  No fun for him!!  On Sunday we headed home with a stop at Eegee's for lunch.  Great ending to our little weekend. 

So PROUD of you Katie!!
