Graduation Day at St. FX

The weather was perfect, the ceremony... moving at times... long at other times. The ceremony was made more interesting with the occasional "text" from both Michelle and Scott, with comments and opinions. We spent the day with Scott's parents who flew in from Winnipeg for this great event. Below is the kids before they headed off to their respective friends homes to get ready... We had perfect seats to see Mick and Scott who sat about 10 rows apart. You can see Mick peeking around her seat mates for me to catch a pic. My camera was not good enough for catching Scott but he was seated with Pat and Mattie, two roommates and best buds! The walk across the stage to shake hands with the Dean and Chancellor was captured but not very clear! Michelle had an awesome dress and even better shoes (thanks to Ashley's great shopping skills!)
All done. Here they are, proud holders of their degrees, posed in front of "Burke", there beloved residence and where it all began....





Congratulations Michelle and Scott...
