Three Degrees in One Decade!

We're at Seagrove Beach this week, with no internet at our beach house (a blessing, really) so this will be quick. Just wanted to celebrate our daughter, Beth's, graduation from the University of Tennessee's Master of Architecture program last Friday. We're so proud of her. Her dad and I, and her fiance, Kevin, attended the hooding ceremony, which was for the graduate and undergraduate schools of architecture, and the interior design students.

We're also celebrating Beth and Kevin's engagement! We love Kevin, and are thrilled to have him join the clan!







Brought to mind Beth's two previous graduations... in December of 2005, when she received her Bachelor of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering at UT...








And back in 2001, when she graduated from Central High School.










Yep, we're proud parents, and having a great time celebrating with her this week at Seagrove Beach, Florida, with her fiance, Kevin (a great cook, by the way! we're grilling out here....)






... and her two best friends from UT, Katie and Kiel.




Tomorrow our son, Jason, and his wife, See and our granddaughter, Grace, arrive for a few days.
I'm pretty much in heaven here:-) Watch for a more serious blog post next week.
