Much to my surprise I really enjoyed today's ceremony. I think most of the reason was because I was able to walk in beside JA, sit next to him during the entire ceremony and be able to receive my diploma immediately after him. It was wonderful being able to watch Dr. Olson and Dr. Horn hug JA as he crossed the platform and to even be able to hear a bit of what they said. I praise the Lord for the honor of being able to graduate with JA this year.
Below are some pictures from today.

Thank you Lord for bringing us through the last four years of school (and the many years of school before we were married). We are exitedly anticipating the Lord's leading for a church in which we can minister. I pray we will always be faithful to God and that we will raise our children with the desire to serve and honor God with their lives the way our families taught us to be faithful through their church ministries. Please pray with us as we seek God's leading for the next season of our lives. We know He is faithful and will show us in His perfect timing when we are ready to receive His plans.

CONGRATULATIONS! Love the girls' matching dresses. Chloe has that same dress in yellow; did you get them at wal-mart?
Let us know how/where the Lord leads. Hip-hip-hooray! This calls for a celebration!
Congrats Tracy! I commend you for being faithful and finishing the course. I would've given up a while ago, okay so, I did. :)And you've persevered with 2 little ones. Enjoy the time off, and we'll be praying as God directs you to your next step.

Love the pictures! You all look so happy and relieved :-) Love the girls' outfits, too! Let's talk about your dress...crazy busy until Monday...I'll call you Monday about it!q
Beth - I got my haircut about a month ago.
Alicia - I love Wal-Mart's clearance, and I enjoy matching the girls for special occasions.
Carrie - the picture with JA kissing me is also my favorite picture. Thanks for the comment about my haircut. It has definately taken some getting use to, but I like the easy go.
those pictures are great! I can't believe I didn't see you that day except for walking down with JA. Your Instant Mashed Potatoes post brought tears to my eyes. You should publish that really. I need to read my Bible now. Thanks for the thoughts!!
