On May 8th, Shane and I celebrated our 11 year wedding anniversary. I cannot believe we have been married 11 years....that's totally crazy! Yet, at the same time, it's hard for me to remember my life without him. He is the most amazing man, husband, and father that I know. I am incredibly grateful for him. He is my special gift from the Lord.
This past Friday, Shane GRADUATED from seminary!!! Yay. Hallelujah. Praise Jesus. Thank You, Thank You. Amen. Whoop Whoop. Ok, you get the picture....I am just a little excited that he is DONE!! He is excited as well, but I think I'm just a bit more excited than he is :)
HayHay and Gran came down for graduation and the girls got their fix of chick-fil-a and the hotel swimming pool. Thanks to the daddy that carries them/drags them/throws them up and down in the water. I'd much rather be chillin in a lawn chair :)
I know...you can't see anything in this pic, but I wanted to post it so I could remember it. Shane had the privilege of reading the passage prior to the graduation speaker, Dr. Sproul, speaking on it. He was actually very nervous about reading it, but he did great...no mispronunciations, long pauses, or anything...way to go, Shane!
The graduate!
Shane, his mom, and Hayward
Shane & Demetrius
Dr. Coupland (left) and Dr. Coffield (Right) are Shane's two counseling professors at RTS. This pic cracks me up because Shane looks TINY standing in between them!
After the graduation ceremony, I felt as though I had actually graduated as well (not necessarily with a seminary degree...just another kind that could be titled "I survived my husband going to seminary" degree). So, I thought it was appropriate to get a pic to prove it.
Congrats Shane! I'm SO proud of you!!

My husband graduated this month, as well and I felt the same as you:)...proud of him for graduating and me for surviving! Congratulations to you and Shane! You two have impacted so many others. I was reading a journal (yesterday) that I kept during the summer of 2000 and tucked away in the pages was a note of encouragement from you. It was so cool to come across it and remember the pivotal role you played in my own walk with Christ. All I can say is THANK YOU!
Let me know if they ever come up with a "I survived my husband going to seminary" degree. If so, I'm all over it.
so proud of him (and you too:)! and i remember your budding romance like it was yesterday! has it really been that long?! feeling a little old...
