Graduation Morning





Daniel graduated from the University of Houston on May 16th, 2009. I couldn't help but be REALLY proud. His name was in the program 3 different times as a student graduating from the College of Health and Human Performance, Suma Cum Laude, and Exercise Science Student of the Year. I don't have the right to be proud of him because I had any part of him doing well. He earned this with the support of his family growing up. However, I am proud of the man I am marrying because he works hard, wants to be the best student he can be, and he is in love with the profession he will spend a lot of time doing. He will begin 3 years of graduate school for Physical Therapy at Texas Women's University, a top 25 PT school in the country. It will take a lot of his time and energy, but I am okay with that because he is doing something he loves and enjoys learning about.

Birthday Night

I am still trying to recover from Daniel's birthday/graduation weekend. On Friday, May 15th, Daniel turned 26. His mom hosted a nice dinner at the house for family and close friends. Most of Daniel's family that came in for the graduation were there. This was the first time I was going to meet his mom's side of the family. They came in from Dallas or Minnesota. It was great meeting them and we had a great time. I am glad Daniel was born. My family gave him the Wii with accessories and we have had fun playing it for a while.
