It's Officially Official!

Well, my wonderful husband is now OFFICIALLY a social work graduate! He was technically done back in October when he received his diploma from his school - but unfortunately, it's a small school and they don't have a ceremony then. Just one in April. Booth College Grad 2010 was held on the weekend of April 23rd-25th. Jared took a half day off on Friday to pick up his gown and go to rehearsal. Saturday evening was the banquet and Jared and I took Cohen along. Jared's mom also joined us and we enjoyed a delicious meal of chicken, carrots, green beans and mashed potatoes. Dessert was also delicious!

Then on Sunday came the actual ceremony where Jared walked the stage in his gown and was hooded and all that other good stuff. Even though he's been done since October and working full time since December, I still got a little teary-eyed watching him up at the front of the church. It was a long 4 years that got us to where we are today and I'm so proud of him!

 Dessert! It was sooo yummy!

Getting hooded.

So funny - Xavier fell asleep about 10 minutes into the ceremony, so he completely missed everything! At least he was quiet!
