Nicholas Graduated!

This was such an exciting day for our family. Nic has been working on getting his Bachelors in Russian and English from the University for seven years. In everything that has gone on in the past seven years along with him working full time to take care of our growing family he has never given up on his education.


Nics mom and dad have been such an amazing support. They help us watch the girls while we have been in classes and on the weekend sometimes so we can go on a date.

Nic and his brother Alex








The graduation was a little longer than we expected. We lost the binky during the graduation and left Ellies bottle at home. Poor girl was kinda cranky...but still so happy. This is a picture of my mom playing with her while we took tons of pictures of our new graduate!













Nic gave me and his parents a stohl to thank us for supporting him while he was in school.
















Nic and his grandparents.








Nics dad and the girls...we had to bribe our little stinker Pres with gum to take this...doesn't she look happy!?











Ellie walked with her daddy.








































Since we forgot the bottle and lost the binky...she chewed on everything including the program.

A late congrats to you Nic.

I have not seen you forever and I saw your blog on Dave and Annie's. Congrats on the 3 little cute girls you have too. I think the last time I saw you Charli was an infant.
