I'm finally getting caught up on our blog! I've been doing a lot of posting lately, so scroll through the older posts (at the bottom of the page) to see other recent posts. One of these days I will actually be caught up! :)

Graduation Ceremony

It was nice to attend Mike's graduation ceremony and celebrate this huge accomplishment.  The ceremony was really neat.  The PhD's walked into the room first, and then the masters and then the undergrads.  Once the ceremony started, the PhDs walked up, received their diploma, and then walked across the stage, where their adviser put the hood on them.

It meant a lot to Mike that his parents came for the ceremony

It's a little hard to see, but Mike is off to the right, in front of the podium, about to walk across the stage.  They are just about to call his name: Doctor Michael Trousdale.  It gave me goosebumps to hear that.  He made it after five years of hard work!
