We had to be on base super early the next day to get a spot for graduation and to fight the crowds
They were expecting roughly 5,000 family and friends for the event
We went to his Aunt and Uncles hotel on base and hung out in the lobby
Braun fell asleep in the chair waiting
The weather was supposed to be sunny and high 80s for the day
Instead it was SUPER misty
The mist was so neat
It really wasn't a fog
It wasn't too cold but just wet!
Which of course killed our hair
I started out with curls and ended up with a wet matted mop on top of my head
Walking over to the parade grounds
Jackie and I
All of us in the wet bleachers!
They brought a few towels from the hotel to wipe down our seats
Most people there had sopping wet butts
The mist would come and go and come back
Its hard to tell in some of the pictures but behind the graduates is a big huge building and airplanes
They lined them all up by fights
Then marched them past the officials that were over the ceremony
At this point they lined them all up on the field
They then gave permission for the family to go find them
Everyone was lined up all close and in formation
His mom is so cute
She looked at me and said "Go get em honey!"
So Jackie, Zoe and I went down to the field to find him
We knew the area he was at but fighting through the hoards of people and men in blue that all looked alike took a while
He couldn't move until we found him
It took us about 10 min!!
Finally we found him!
His family was all waiting for us
Braun, Jackie, Kellie, CW, Zoe, Craig and Kim
Nyla, CW and Walt
Bruce, CW and Pam
After he graduated he was 'released' for his town pass
It was nice to see the graduation but it was really nice to be able to have him free for the day

I like the mist, it makes it look very cool I think. Who is this CW? "Go get um honey" makes it sound like someone very special?!?!
