Here is Kaci and Brooklynn watching the graduation from our lofty seats above the stage. We had so much space, thanks to our family staying strong! But this little nugget did so good, only one tiny little cry, but I think she just wanted to be heard by Tera way down in her seat.
Aaron took the day off work to come join the celebration.
Here is the group. I know Keri, Samantha, Ty, Kyle, and the rest of the gang was there in spirit! We are all so happy Tera is finally done with school. It is such a great feeling. She is actually in the other room reading a book....for fun. Great.
Ok...so here is a shot of the surroundings of our seats. Looks like there is a lot of open ones right? We chose the perfect seats right begind the stage. No one else was around us, but we knew it would be fine because it is where my family sat during my ceremony last year. We were enjoying our seats, although there were tons of open seats around the arena, because we were to ourselves and we could see Tera the entire time. After about 45 minutes of sitting there we had 2 young men in red shirts come ask to see our tickets. We told them that we gave them to the lady at the gate and they left. The graduation had started, there was a speaker talking and next thing we know there are like 4 security gaurds heading our way. to give you a visual, we were the ONLY ones up there so all Tera and her friends down there could see the action as it unfolded. So one lady came down to ask us where our tickets were...we said the same thing. This Lady was a mean one. She said we MUSt have tickets to sit here! My dad said "give me a break, we are not causing trouble." SHe said, "YOU are causing trouble Sir." EXCUSE ME LADY!!! you do not talk to us like that! We all started to say we were not leaving and she was not having this and marched up the stairs to the top.
I followed her right up the stairs and shared her my thoughts about how she was being rude to inturrupt the graduation, how we spent a lot of money on tuition at this school, how we sat up here last time, how if we were breaking any rules she should have said that first....she then thought that I was a problem and threatened to kick me out and thought that maybe we "snuck" in because we did not have tickets. WHO on earth would sneak in a graduation!? No offence, but they are not sneak-worthy events. SOO....they lady and 4 other security people are at the top of the stairs talking with me and then they finally say.."we are not suposed to let people sit up here during this ceremony." I told them that they lacked the basic skills of their job and should have adressed that in the first place, because we dont break rules... we just lie about having tickets (they were in our pockets the entire time). I walked back down to my seat and i was just mad you know? All of us were, which is just funny because our family WOULD be the ones to get in a fight with the security gaurds.
Minutes later I get a text from Tera "there is another one coming your way." This one was the supervisor and she knew she was not winning this war once she saw the look on my parents face. We kindly told her that the timing is horrible to make us move, that they should have and could have told us prior to the start of the ceremony and then she kindly got ignored. She knew we were right...She spoke some nonsense into her little shirt mic and said that we were "10-4'd?" I gues that means we were OK'd to sit there. We were left alone the rest of the ceremony.
That story was a little longer than I planned, but man-o-man, it was so funny. But just look at all these open seats. haha.
Here is Tera and I with our gangsta Masta pose. We are representing the SDSU Masta's.
After the graduation we came home and Grandma and Grandpa Mosher drove down to take us to a yummy ittaalian lunch at Cios (or something like that). It was delicious and fun to see them! they are the best.
Later that night we had a dessert party. Tera's friends came over and we had a lot of fun eating desserts and talking. I made chocolate cupcakes with penut butter cream cheese frosting (so goood). My mom put together a ton of delicious treats and it was a great end to a fun day!
