Papa's Graduation

We got to go to Houston a couple of weekends ago to see Papa graduate! I was so glad that we were all able to make it down there! It was so exciting and inspiring to watch him walk across that stage! Congrats Papa!! Here are some of the highlights!
Gotta love road trips!
We had a quick pit stop...I've actually never seen a play set at a rest stop...the kids enjoyed it for about 1 minute!
Here's what we looked at for about 10 hours that day...the back of Mat's truck!
The graduation was postponed one week due to Hurricane Ike...We were able to capture a couple of pictures of the damage in Houston...notice all the boarded windows on this building...
This was such a cute sight to me...I had to take a picture...Addison LOVES "her Jasy"!
Finally to the graduation!

Tell Bob Congratulations from us also. That is very admirable. There are missionaries here that I think are younger than he is that think they are too old to learn a language much less study and graduate with a degree.
