Master Matt

Last Friday was the big day!!  We got up and headed up to Salt Lake.  We stopped and In-n-Out for lunch and then we headed to the U campus:

Then we took some pictures before it was time for Matt to line-up.

I put that vinyl on his cap so we could spot him in the crowd.  :)

And that was it!  After 18 months of classes, projects, conference calls, homework, tests, papers, and everything else he was done!!! Finished!!  He had his Master’s degree!! 
And then an hour later is was all over.  I insisted on everyone being in the graduate shot:
And then the Morrills:

And then the graduate himself:

After I got sufficient pictures, we headed to Ruby River for a tasting congratulatory dinner.  It was the best day and more than anything I am so proud of my husband who worked so hard to accomplish the goal we set.  He is a great man and I love him so much.  Congratulations pookie!!  You’re the best.
