Its finally over!

Well, I officially have graduated from seminary. Last Friday was the ceremony. I think the morning was a great example of irony. My wife and parents insisted that I participate in the ceremony. With moving, finishing up at the church, and everything else going on I wanted to skip the ceremony. The morning was damp and very chilly for the time of year. You may notice that emily is wearing an overcoat in the picture. Since I had a massive black robe on, I felt perfectly comfortable throughout the ceremony. My family, on the other hand, spent the time shivering.

On a serious note, the ceremony was really good. No one acted like an idiot. Families actually held their applause until everyone was finished. The ceremony stayed at about two hours. When I was in youth ministry, I went to a lot of graduations. They never had any of those qualities.

Uncle Justin,
I got to graduate last night and for my present I got a new pink video IPOD. I heard that you liked the card we sent you! I can't wait to see you next week.

Love,
Katie B.

Congratulations KB. I'm a little jealous of the IPOD. Your Aunt Emily won't let me get a pink anything.

I hope you got to hold that "important document" in your hand. Since when do you capitalize the first letter in the name of a day of the week and not capitalize the first letter in the name of your wife? Love, Mother in TN
