What a day!! I thought it was never going to come. Ben has worked long and hard for this accomplishment. I am so proud of him.
Here is Ben walking outside graduation.
I passed Daphne off to him and he carried her into the Spectrum. She really thought that was fun.
It was great because all Graduate degree's were the day before Undergrads so graduation was short and sweet. I do have to admit it was a very emotional time for me. I was so glad to be done with school. These past two years have been hard with Ben in graduate school but worth it too!!
Here is our family with the Graduate!!
I had to make sure I had a picture with that degree too. It is almost as much mine as his.
Ryker loved Ben's hat. This is what he was doing the whole time.
Ben and Daphne walking back to the car. What a special time for us to go and support Ben with this HUGE accomplishment.
Old Main Hill
This is the Center where Ben spent most of his time.
Congratulations! It must feel so good!!!
ReplyDeleteI remember that feeling of relief and accomplishment, even though you weren't the one getting the degree! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteWow congratulations to you both that is quite an accomplishment!
ReplyDeleteYou guys are rock stars! It was interesting looking at the pictures thinking Andrew could just be finishing a masters degree if we would have chosen that path. I'm sure life has been much harder but look what you have to show for it. Take it from me you haven't missed anything over the last couple of years and now have so much too look forward too. Don't know if that made any sense but it did in my head. I've been a little out of it.
ReplyDeleteWow--congrats! That is so great! And hello? It's totally "your degree" too! I have a great deal of empathy for the wives of long going students. Yes, still having that empathy and will continue to do so for another few years while we finish residency and believe me when it's all said and done I think I'll be changing my name to Dr. Jessi Allen-- congrats to you both!!! Where to now? Maybe you'll end up close to home and I'll get to see you at the Pumpkin Patch sometime? loves, Jes
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! And I know what you mean about the degree being yours too...I feel the same way about Jonny's degree. We are so excited for you!
