University of Idaho Graduation
May 3rd 2011

Today's the Day....Graduation!
We are anxiously waiting for the ceremony to begin at the Colonial Theater.

Guest Speaker Sam Shakir

Ches receiving his degree from President Nellis.

At the end of the ceremony a ton of balloons were released,
so of course the kids snatched a bunch up. Made it a fun picture.

Our Master of Adult and Organizational Learning and Leadership

So proud of him!

Ches and Troy Lassle.
Troy is our good friend and neighbor across the street.
It was really neat that they graduated together. Troy got his masters of engineering.

Ches and Roger Scott. Roger is a U of I professor and Ches took a few classes from him.

Ches and Vivek Utgikav. A friend and professor in Idaho Falls.

Ches with Alice Allen. Alice is a great friend and was Ches' academic adviser. She was such a great help and support to Ches throughout his degree.

It has been a long road with lots and lots of study hours and stress over assignments and test. But all of his hard work paid off. Ches graduated with a 4.0! He is such a smart guy. I am so proud of him and all that he accomplished.
