What a week this has been! It was Les' final race to the finish line. He had three finals. Two of them were tests and one was a presentation. The best part was that no matter how bad he did on the tests he would still graduate. On Tuesday evening was the Order of the Engineer ceremony. See pictures below.
Saying the oath!
On Thursday morning the college fed the seniors breakfast and then that night they did senior celebration where they played games to give away prizes. Saturday morning dawned bright and promising. This is where we ended up.
Our family in front of Old Main. We are so proud of our husband/father for making it to graduation!
Just the two of us! A kiss for good measure (I am pleased with his achievement.)
The girls are proud of their daddy!
Les on the "A"!
Joining him on the "A"!
Quite a few people came to watch us take pictures and then came to the ceremony. We are grateful for the support of our friends and family. Les' Aunt and Uncle, their daughter Sydnie, and grandchildren Tavia, Shalae, and Kayden (infant) came from Les' side of the family. My parents, brother David, brother Daniel, sister-in-law Jana, nephew Tyler, niece Kailey came from my side. Our friends that came were Jeff and his twin girls, Ben and Ginger with their two boys. Here are some of the people who came with us.
Afterward we headed to our house and had a BBQ in the backyard. All the food was so good. And the company was even better. Les wanted me to make a cake for his graduation in the shape of a urinal with the words, "The last 4 years of my life about to be flushed down the toilet!" I didn't want to do that but I did give a little consession. I made cupcakes and decorated his with white chocolateto make it look like a toilet. Tell me what you think!
It was a great day!
