MBA Graduation

Finally! We are no longer students!! Can I say that even though I've just been married to a student and not actually a student myself? On May 15, 2010 Spencer graduated from the W.P. Carey School of Business at ASU. He has had such a great experience being in this program, but he's also glad it's over. It's so wonderful to be moving on to the next phase of our lives. I am so proud of Spencer and how hard he worked in school and how hard he works at everything! He hardly knows how to relax. In fact, he is already in Houston working at his new job with ExxonMobil. Not much of a break, right?

This picture is of all the students who specialized in Real Estate so this was the crowd Spencer had the majority of his classes with. They spent a lot of time together!

Can you spot Spencer in this photo? I'll give you a hint: he's turned around and looking at the camera.
These are the other LDS couples we spent a lot time with over the past two years. They are so much fun and we are definitely going to miss hanging out with them. We are lucky though that one couple is moving to Houston too so we don't have to lose all our friends at once!

My mom and dad came to graduation too. They've been as involved in Spencer's schooling as I have been so they are well aware of how hard he's worked and how awesome an accomplishment this is.
Drew came out from California to show his support. It was fun to get to spend a couple days with him one last time before we move so much further from him.
The kids were so good at graduation. As far as graduations go, I think this one was pretty good. Only one speaker before they announced the graduates, but it was still pretty boring for a 3 and almost 6 year old. They were certainly glad when it was over and they had fun trying on Spencer's clothes.
Like I said, Spencer is already down in Houston and the kids and I will be joining him next Friday. We will be in an apartment until our house is finished, hopefully a couple weeks before we welcome the newest addition to our family. Can't wait!

Hurray for Spencer! Hard at work, eh? It seems like everyone should have added one more year to school like Mike did. Can't believe you guys are back in the real working world. Miss ya!

WTG, Spencer! He IS a hard-working man and should be VERY proud of how well he fulfills his role and husband and father!
