Graduation, a Funral, and the Christmas

Well I actually graduated.When we got there my family was looking at the program and saw that they forget to put my name in the program. The lady who is incharge of making the programs relized the printer didn't get my name in the program and so she had them make special programs just for me. It was nice of her to do that. They also mispronounced Yan, and Henry's name (Henry's came up to present my nursing pin to me, its an old tradition at our school that someone "pins" you.) I'll post some pictures later. Now all I need is a job and to pass my NCLEX which I plan to take in 3-4 weeks.

My Mom's dad also passed away the day after graduation so I flew over to Seattle to help with the funeral. It was really good to be with my family, especially my grandma. My Grandma LaVon is an incredibly sweat, kind, forgiving, and generous woman. She was very hospitable to me and Henry while we were there and I love spending time with her. She told me lots of stories about her and my grandpa. I had never heard many of the stories and it made this sad time fun.

Once I got back from Seattle, I repacked all my stuff and flew to Portland with Henry for Christmas. Henry's two sister and parents were there so we played games, ate way to much food, and got to see some friends. We went to a Christmas eve service with our friends Allan and Marci. They use to live in Spokane but moved to Vancouver to be with Marci's family. We spent some time catching up with them over some good Dim Sum.
