ACA Graduation 2013

This years Kindergarten Graduation was so much fun! 

It was so neat watching these kids grow up this year. 

I am so glad that I was there for their graduation! 

We had lots of fun watching them be kids! 

They played with their tassels and diplomas! 

After the Kindergarten Graduation we were blessed to attend Adventure Christian Academy's first ever High School Graduation! 

Mrs. Bickhart's 2nd Grade class blessed us with a song.

They did such a great job! 

Then.... the brass band played! 

I enjoyed watching the youth band lead worship! 

They did such a great job! 

Tommy made us all laugh with his comment about singing in a dress! LOL

I was very impressed with Ryan's poem! 

These kids did a GREAT JOB!! 

I am so glad that I was there to be apart of this wonderful time!

Detto's Master's Graduation Ceremony!!

Let me start by saying I am soooooooo proud of my hubby! 

I cannot believe all that he has accomplished, especially considering all of the obstacles that he has faced... one being DEPLOYED while going to school full time! 

He was in Iraq when he finished his Bachelors degree and so we missed out on that graduation. Then he started his Master's studies while deployed and 95% of it during his deployment.  

I really wanted to watch him walk and I really wanted our kids to experience it. 

For me it was a visible / tangible ceremony that represented all of the hours that he spent "working on school work"! 

The whole this was wonderful! 

I enjoyed all of the Christmas decorations! 

Especially this hand carved nativity from Israel made of olive wood.Simply Stunning! 

Stephen is so funny! 

 My Dad was so bummed that he couldn't make it to Detto's graduation. 

(He was in Haiti on a Missions Trip!)

The Southeastern Choir was awesome! 

I couldn't wait for it to be Detto's turn to get his collar thingy!! 

Here he is getting his collar! 

Pictures! 

And getting his diploma!! 

I am sooo proud! 

What an awesome experience! 

He is such an inspiring man!

He does the impossible and makes it look easy! 

I want to be like Detto when I grow up! 

I love my family! 

Stephen can not help but make silly faces! 

Hugs,

Dad's Graduation

I really enjoyed going to my Dad's College Graduation! I wasn't there for the "first one"! I wasn't even a twinkle in my Daddy's eye then. LOL

But I'm glad we got to go to this one! 

Dad gave Mom a Certifical of Appreciation! I thought that was a GREAT idea! She definately had to put up with him doing alot of long hours of school!

We went out to a really upscale place for dinner - Denny's! hee hee hee

The kids made this WONDERFUL sign! We were the only ones there with a sign!!

Congratulations Dad! Way to Go! Now when are you going to get your Doctorate??
