baaaaahhh!!!!
COMMENCEMENT:
day 1
where's daddy???



i loved the snowy mountains in the background of this picture above.
...
HOODING CEREMONY:
THE BIG KAHUNA!!!
day 2
dr. scout master giving a speech.
brennan kept saying "daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy" the entire speech.
then he screamed b/c we wouldn't let him go sit with dad.
aunt ashlie carried him away kicking and screaming.
it was awesome.
muchas gracias a-town.
"the hooding"
where he was officially given the title doc.
so cool.
i think this means we might be grown ups...
nah, no house yet.
we brought the pork loin back for the last part.
tamed him with a bag of m&m's i grabbed as we ran out the door.
one point for team mom.
go me.
"the oath"
the "sean-tur-age"
(pronounced like mirage)
his female study mates.
yes, he only studied with the girls.
his pt besties.
i love them all!!!
they loved the goodies i sent with sean to school;-)
the entire gang that showed up to support us:

brennan's red sweater was torn off 2 seconds into the ceremony.
