HE DID IT!!!!!!!!!

He finally did it. . . .

After:
  • 3 years
  • one big mortgage, and a house that we'll be lucky to sell for a decent price (but it will happen)
  • one new monkey added to the brood (Zoe was born here)
  • 47 . . . .oh, wait . . . make that 49 new tics (those are mine)
  • a half-a-head of gray hair (those are his)
  • a mountain of school loan debt (acceptable for pursuing a degree right)
  • a slew of priceless new friendships and connections (yes, that includes you!)
  • 3 fabulous summers enjoying the amenity center pools
  • loads of blood, sweat, tears, and mental anguish
  • more knowledge than can be learned by the average person (that's Chris's)
  • and an infinite number of incredible memories . . .
HE DID IT!!!!! Chris walked the big walk . . . wore the fancy gown . . . took the many pictures . . . posed with the fake diploma . . . said the Chiropractic oath . . . and officially GRADUATED from Parker College of Chiropractic!!!! Can I get a Woot! Woot?!

Check it out . . .
The happy graduate!
