Mitch's Graduation

Well, Mitch did it! 

In May he graduated with his Master's Degree in Business Energy

from the University of Tulsa! 

I am so proud of my man! 

I'm a firm believer that YOU can do anything you set your mind to! 

He had his goal set and he crushed it! 

With God all things are possible {even in the chaos of having a little one, building a house and welcoming a second baby into our family!}. 

After Mitch's ceremony we headed home to have a quint dinner party! 

For the dinner we hired local chef David Andersen who made the most fabulous steak dinner. 

We had a small yet wonderful party with our close friends and family to celebrate Mitch!

I hope not because I have a few more we tied! 

The turkey humus "burritos" as Eli likes to call them were a hit! I will say the ezekiel
