Christie's Residency Graduation

Ryan and I flew to St Louis to support Christie in her residency graduation.  It was a great night where the director of each program stood up and said a few words about the Dr that was graduating.  The Resident then took the microphone and had the opportunity to thank their family that was there and talk about their experience.  The dinner was fabulous and I would have really enjoyed that open bar!

 

Before we went into the reception we snapped a few picturesRyan, Christie, and Colleen

I thought this strawberry looked like Audrey from The Little Shop of Horror...Ryan had no clue what that was!
