Greg Graduated!

Sorry, this is way over-due. It seemed to all happen so quickly and then we were off to La Grande and Gig Harbor to celebrate in the following weeks.

Greg graduated from WSU on May 8th as a Mechanical Engineer. My parents, Greg parents, and his brother, Michael, came for the occasion. It was fun to have family here with us for the big day!






It was quite a production!


That's Greg on the big screen when he received his diploma.


Greg sewed robot parts on his cap. They symbolize the hours and hours spent designing and building robots at WSU. (That is part of "The Claw" from last year.)




After the ceremony we all went to the engineering building so Greg could show us around and say goodbye to the place that was practically his home for the past 3 1/2 years.


Greg is posing in front of one of the many posters he made for the ASME club. He served as president, vice president, treasurer, secretary, and industry relations officer.


Here's Greg sitting at the Presidential desk in the ASME office. That was a neat and exciting time, but I'm glad it's over. It's nice to have Greg home at dinner time and be able to spend time together. I missed him a lot during the last two years of school.


We made it! Now we have to work on getting me to graduation too!


The big question is when and where Greg will get a job. He has applied to a number of companies in WA, CA, and Utah. Wish us luck and say a prayer for Greg to get a good job soon! (...and hopefully we live next to a good school so I can finish too!)

Oh...those are very nice pictures, Holly. It was fun to look at all of them and remember being there. Graduation is a big milestone. You're in our prayers for finding a job. Hopefully it will be something that is perfect for Greg and the location will be good for future plans. AND, HOPEFULLY, it won't be too far away from family! Well, first things first...a good job would be honkey dorey and we'd be so grateful for that. : )

That's really neat that they put the event on a big screen- I wish they'd done that for Jeff's graduation! It's impossible to make out the tiny dots of people when they say their names! Congrats to you both, and good luck in the hunt. We'll say a prayer your way...
