Just a Shade Under a Decade

Tommy: Did you hear I graduated?
Richard: Yeah and just a shade under a decade. All right.
Tommy: You know a lot of people go to college for seven years.
Richard: I know, they're called doctors.


Well, he did it (in only 7 years)......... Brad graduated!!!!

We drove down to Phoenix last week for the commencement.

Here's the big college grad



Brad and his parents got to go here President Obama speak at the 1st commencement. I opted out of sitting in the 100 degree weather for 5 hours. I hear that I missed a good speech though.


This is us looking toward the future and smiling at the fact that we won't have to take out more student loans. But it only lasted a minute when we realized that we have to start paying them all back soon.


Moff, Mom, and Dad got to come and be with us for the big event.


Here are some of Brad's best friends from ASU: Seth, Dan, & Thomas


Here is my support group: Rachel, Holly, & Allison (the wives)



And finally.....Brad's #1 fan. As you can see, she's thrilled.


Now, he gets to study for the bar.... so fun.
