Ben is a doctor!!
Today was Ben's graduation from Des Moines University College of Osteopathic Medicine. Four incredibly hard years have paid off and Ben is officially a doctor!
We started our celebrations last night. We decided to ditch the DMU dinner and celebrate with just our family and best friends. We went to the Cheesecake Factory with our parents and the Pettit's and Pfeiffer's families. It was a much more relaxed setting where we could just enjoy the people we love most and let our kids play with their best friends.
This morning we headed to Hyvee Hall in Des Moines, Iowa to watch Ben walk across the stage and get robed as a doctor! Notice all of the colors Ben gets to wear around his neck...he not only passed his classes, he aced them!
We are all so proud of our Doctor Daddy!
We are so blessed to have had such great friends to go through this experience with!
We are also grateful for all of the support that we received from our family! Both of our parents were able to come to Iowa for Ben's graduation.
You did it babe!! I love you so much! I'm so proud of all of your hard work and dedication. You are an amazing man, father and husband...and I know you will be an amazing doctor!!
All of the festivities are over now and after 4 long years Ben can finally relax! And his choice of relaxation tonight is playing with fire :) Ben and Cole bought some "fireworks". They are the legal ones so they aren't too exciting, but Ben is still like a little boy being able to light something on fire. I love ALL of my kids :)
Yay Doctor Daddy!!!
