Graduation Day


For 5 months I have been saying the date "November 10th", so when the day arrived, it was a bit surreal but super exciting!  I flew out the night before, as did Joe's parents and we stayed with Joe's sister Kasey, and husband Sky.  On the big day we got a tour of where he was for his training and got to meet his classmates.
 This is his roommate.
 Some of the facilities...

 And here is the graduate!  The ceremony was very nice and Joe was excited to have the director of the organization give him his "creds" and badge.
 The grounds there were very nice, here we are in a courtyard area.
 They have an entire mock city that they use for training, here's everyone there
 And a pic with the beautiful changing leaves!
 Joe was so blessed to have his sister, Kasey, only 20 minutes away!  He was able to spend almost every weekend there!  As you can see, she is expecting her first baby in February - so exciting!
It was a sad good-bye for Joe to leave his sister and her hubby.
