J.D. GRADUATED!!

I'm so proud of my hunners! He worked so hard, sacrificed so much, and worked the entire time while going to school. We went through our share of hardships while he was going to school as well. I couldn't be a more proud wife. He was so excited to be done with undergraduate schooling. He felt so proud when he had so much family come to support his achievement. We had a big group and it was so awesome to have them all cheer J.D. on when his name was called. This is such a huge accomplishment, I can't say enough about how proud I am of J.D.
WAY TO GO HUNNERS!

Here is J.D. in the SUU march for graduation!
J.D. is receiving his diploma from President Benson!
And here is the graduate himself! A very handsome one at that!
This was the night of the big graduation.
The night of the big graduation with Dawson. They didn't receive diplomas this night, but Dawson was still so excited to see his dad walk up to him all dressed up.

Here's J.D. waiting for his name to be called :-)

Dawson was so excited for his daddy! He couldn't get enough of his hat. Dawson felt like he'd graduated as well!

Dawson said, "Good job dad!" with a thumbs up!

This is after the small graduation Saturday May 7th, 2011. We are a proud family! And Dawson is still feeling like he is the one who graduated.
To Dawson: You're right, dad got his education and graduated not only for himself, but for his family. I hope you follow in his footsteps.

J.D. and his parents. They were so proud of him! J.D. has such great examples in his life, and I am honored to have married into such an amazing family.

Here is all the people that were able to make it! It was so AWESOME! Thank you everyone for coming- it really meant so much to us, especially J.D. Nothing can replace the family support for anything.

Once again, thank you to all the family who traveled so far to be here for J.D. It was so much fun to see you! I'm so proud of J.D. and hope I can graduate one day so I can set just as good of an example to our kids as he has.
