Dada's graduation!!

It is official --- after many months and 2 loooong years -- Justin has finished his Psych NP program and has graduated from the University of Utah!! This was definitely cause for celebration and so we headed down to SLC for several days (a few strictly business and a few relaxing) to watch Justin get his diploma and make us all so very proud.

Here is Ellie and dada right before the graduation ceremony -- hanging out at the U!

Here is Ellie and dada after the graduation ceremony -- with the flowers she insisted we purchase for him!

Thank you for all of your hard work and for all the sacrifices you made to not only finish your program but to also work, be a great husband and father. Everything you do we know that you do it for our family and to make sure that all of our dreams can come true. You are truly the perfect example for Ellie as to what it takes to work hard, be successful and to pursue dreams. While others may not understand the choices we make or even begin to grasp the sacrifies we make - We know(!) and Ellie will reap the benefits of those choices for the rest of her life. I know that she is so very proud of you and I beam with pride at all that you have accomplished and at the man that you are.

We love you dada!!!
