Phinally Done!

We headed back to Gainesville in a rental car (at this point we hadn't gotten our van) for Stephen's final graduation from UF. This is the fourth degree he has received from UF, so I think he has pretty much done it all! After 3 years of being a full-time student and writing and defending an over 300 page dissertation (Stephen can send you a copy if anyone is interested in reading it), Stephen is now a Doctor! 

 
Both sets of our parents were able to be in Gainesville to celebrate in this momentous occasion, which was really special. It was very strange to not being sleeping in our house while being in Gainesville, but it was nice to be back for one last visit. While in Gainesville, we also went to church for one last time. Stephen got to play piano one last time and the church recognized us and prayed for us. Leaving Creekside really is one of the hardest things about leaving Gainesville.
