Medical School Graduation

Ok so super, super, super big day in our lives. Paul graduated medical school on May 20th 2012.  I can't even describe how proud of Paul I am.  He worked so so hard to make this dream a reality.  He put in so many hours, late nights, early morning, and weekends trying to be a great student and become a great doctor.  He did awesome in his classes, board exams and clinical rotations.  This journey didn't come without sacrifice, there were missed family outings, family vacations, and just good old family life.  This journey was hard, and until you live through medical school you will never completely understand the struggle, sacrifice and difficulties that come with it.  But with this journey also came great joy and blessings.  We were able to meet wonderful, lifelong friends.  I was able to learn to serve and be served.  And I personally was able to meet a whole bunch of amazing women in my ward and wives of other med students.  So even though this journey was hard I don't regret it ( I wouldn't do it a second time, I don't think I could survive another 4 years, the first 4 were enough but I I'm definitely happy we went through it). Anyways back to Paul I think he is awesome and great, and just the most hardworking guy I know and I am so proud of him!

Paul's mom was able to be at the graduation with us.  It was at the Hotel Las Vegas and I was very happy to have her there to help me with the kids.  It was a long day and these pictures are out of order but this was the exciting day!
