Graduation

After 4 years, Kirk finally graduated! The last few months were pretty stressful, to the point he was thinking he may have to spend some time over the summer to finish requirements. But, luckily, he didn't and he was able to get everything done (on the day we moved.) We went to an awards banquet a few nights before graduation and he received several department awards as well as an honors medatl. Kirk's parents and brothers were able to come to stay with us for a few days and it was fun to have them there.
Here is the best shot we have of him as he walked across the stage:

Tom, Scott and Connor when we were waiting to go inside:

Yay! I'm so glad that it is over! We enjoyed our time in LA and at UCLA, but these last 6 months have been so crazy that in a way it is nice to be done and moving on to something else crazy and exciting. I am proud of Kirk and the work that he did to get this far. He is a great husband and I know that I will always be able to count on him.
