Introducing Dr. Bateman

Daniel graduated today!  We are so proud of Daniel and all of the hard work he has put into his schooling.  The kids were relatively well behaved.  I had some help with the kids as Daniel's grandparents and my Aunt and Uncle came to help us celebrate.  Here are a few pictures from the day as well as a couple of videos.  Bethany and Julie, I have some videos I need to send on to you but I would love to get copies of the group photos you took!!

Now here is Dr. Daniel.

Brandon and Daniel walking and getting their diploma's.  When they were standing there the Dr turned their hood out to show their colors saying they are now Dr's.

Mike walking and getting his diploma/getting his colors.  So exciting that they are all graduates now.  We missed not having Jeff there graduating with them!  Brandon is all done in the clinic now and Daniel will be finished in a few weeks and Mike not too long after that.  We will all be moved on by September.

Our little family with Summa Cum Laude Dr. Bateman.

Benson practicing for when he comes back here to become a Dr like Daddy.

I think this is one of my favorites.  This morning Kimber went into her closet and started tugging on this dress saying "Dre, dre, dre".  I guess she really wanted to wear this!

McKay wearing Daddy's cap.  He really just wanted to eat the diploma.

Me and Daniel... Kimber snuck in there too!

We had a bbq with the Barnette's and Humpherys' and company this afternoon to celebrate.  It was raining all day so luckily we had a shelter to hide under.  The kids had a great time running around playing with bubbles and getting wet!

Daniel's Grandparents bought us matching UWS hoodies as a grad present.  Daniel also got a t-shirt that says Well Adjusted on it.  We love them!

McKay was great and a big champ today.  He stayed in his seat through most of the bbq and was happy as long as he had his spoon!

Kimber enjoying her dinner.

Congratulations Daniel!  We are so proud of you!  I also want to thank our parents for encouraging and support our decision to come here to school.  Especially to Daniel's parents for raising such an amazing man that strives for his best.  You did an amazing job!
