Our Graduate!!!

Derek graduated from UVU on Friday afternoon. He has been such a hard worker and great student, we are SO proud of him. He got his bachelors in Graphic Design and is very talented in his degree. I just have to say what a proud wife I am. Last year in April he was invited from the department of Graphic Design to compete in the skills USA in Utah. In his department he got first place. That sent him to nationals in June to Kansas City. In that competition he placed 3rd in the nation. We were all SO proud of him. Congratulations sweetie and thank you for all your hard work. WAY TO GO!!!!Emma is so proud of Daddy. In fact she wanted to dress up just like him on his special day. Isn't this the cutest cap and gown? My friends Mom was so nice to make it for her.

Wow, Derek, these pictures confirm that you are now officially a grownup. You're holding your child, you have on a wedding ring, and you're a college grad. Congrats buddy!
