Another Graduate... Congrats Daddy!!!

Edward walked in his graduation ceremony Saturday morning. He officially has his MBA and is FINISHED!! We're so glad that this box is checked and we can move on to the next great adventure.
We shared Ed's graduation with his parents, my parents and our beautiful DAUGHTER! I prayed very hard for Gabi to be home in time for this milestone in her daddy's life. Edward has missed a lot of occasions in the last ten years because of deployments and our overseas addresses. I really wanted this to be one that he could share with his daughter.
We went to graduation, had lunch out and returned home in time for Gabi to meet her Aunt Jana and Uncle Leo. Then she took an almost 3 hour nap. Gabi was soooo good yesterday. She sat in the restaurant for 2 hours and never made a peep. She took pictures with her MBA friends/family. And she met a lot, a lot, a lot of people. She barely fussed.

Here are some great pics of a few of our friends and family from Ed's graduation.

Gabi certainly adds a great deal to any occasion. Thanks so much for sharing this event with us. We love every minute we get to spend with Gabi and the two of you, of course.
Good pictures. Do you think you and Edward could try harder to look happy?
Love you all too much,
Mom

Congrats Ed on your graduation. What's that around your neck...looks to me like a chocking hazard. I certainly wouldn't know what that piece of cloth means or represents. Kudos to you my friend.
