Our family arrived late Friday night, and we enjoyed a full and lively house for the weekend. Lil' Mac loved the chaos and noise of having so many people around, and he especially enjoyed the quality time time to play with his cousins.Ellis had fun showing Mac some of the Medical School buildings:

The weekend came to a close with the Duke University graduation ceremony on Sunday morning and the special Duke Medicine graduation ceremony in the afternoon. The most exciting part of the whole weekend was when Ellis received his diploma and was announced officially as "Dr. Ellis Boisvert Johns." (No, Ellis did not tell them how to pronounce his middle name).Sweet Bella took a nap in the big bed:
