It feels like we have been in school forever... oh wait we have. Kev has been attending some type of school since we got married, almost 10 years ago. (Allow me to brag for a minute) Well this last Thursday, September 2, 2010, Kev graduated from the Physician Assistant program through the US Army, along with another Bachelors and Masters from the University of Nebraska. I'm so extremely proud of him and his efforts in accomplishing this. He has worked really hard. It is official that we will be East coasters for the next three years. Kev will be with the 82nd Airborne Division and will be up for a deployment in a year. We are really enjoying North Carolina, even though it is really far from family and friends. It was really nice that Kev's parents could come and celebrate with us.

Sweet moment
Yeah!
Not only did we celebrate a graduation but we also celebrated Benjamin starting Kindergarten. He was so excited and so ready to start. Ryley also started second grade this year and is enjoying it, as always. I found a K-2 primary school that I am extremely pleased with, next year will be interesting though.

Congratulations, Kevin and Katie! I am bursting at the seams with pride for you guys. Even though now you're an "O", Kev, I still love ya!
Holy crap, those kids are growing up fast! Their faces look so much more grown up!
I am so excited for you guys! Hard work pays off. You deserve to be where you are. We miss you guys!!
Yeah! Congratulations! We are proud of you!
Yay I'm so happy for you guys! Good job Kev you've been a great example to Ben of finding what you want to do and going for it. I wish we could have flown him out there to represent us for the grad. Everyone looks so grown up for school I can't believe it!! Kate you look great by the way. Talk to you guys soon.
Oh my heck! You updated! I'm really sorry about the deployment. But I made it through without becoming too crazy, so you'll do fine. Congrats on Kevin finishing school! 10 years huh? Shouldn't he be a doctor or something? Wait...
I cant even tell you how excited we are for you guys. Nate and I were just laying in bed the other night talking about how cool it is for your family to be done with school. I love the family photos you guys took too. And Katie we think that you can also start signing your name with P.A. at the end because you definitely put in just as much hard work. Hooray for a paychek! (or at least a bigger one)
Congrats to Kevin and all of the family! I'm glad things worked out for you to stay in North Carolina (even though we miss you guys) but I'm so glad we got to see you in May. And yeah to Ryley and Ben for starting school. They look so cute. And Yeah for Katie getting a few hours with two less kids :) It is kind of nice going grocery shopping with just Emilee. Good job Kevin!!!!
Congratulations Kevin!! All the hard work has finally paid off. We are so happy for you and the family, sad that you will be in NC for 3 years, but happy that you are done with school. Hopefully you will get to come back to Arizona before you get deployed. Two kids in school, Katie you will feel like a new person, with time on your hands. Enjoy the time with the other two. Before you know it they will all be in school and you will be all by yourself. Katie congratulations to you for enduring long hours while Kevin studied. Your the best. Love MOM
Congrats on all accounts! And a big sigh of relief to be done with school. Way to stick with it and go after your dreams!
Congrats to Kev!...and congrats to the kids on the new school year! I can't believe how big they are getting! I miss you and hope you are well!
Congratulations, Mayberries! That is super. I'm still a little bit confused about the whole University of Nebraska thing, though. I must have missed the part about Nebraska.
I can't believe little Ben is in kindergarten. That freaks me out a little bit.
Congrats!! So glad you've finished. Good Luck with the next few years!!
Congrats!! So glad you've finished. Good Luck with the next few years!!
I feel super proud of you guys, too! Congratulations--I know it takes hard work on the part of the whole family plus kev's brain to accomplish that, so yay, you guys! I'm kind of glad that you will be staying in NC for a while longer, giving me and the kids a chance to come and visit!
Yeah for you guys! Very big accomplishment!
