Master Johnson

After a very intense 19 months, Neil graduated with his International MBA from Thunderbird Global School of Management! He did the accelerated program and did it all online so we didn't have to move to Arizona~! The school recommended that he quit his job because it would be too much to deal with, but he kept his job at Fidelity Investments the entire time and still graduated with honors! He's just that awesome!
Me and my parents went down to Phoenix to celebrate Neil's graduation and attend the ceremony.
Here's us before the graduation.

Neil and a few of his classmates. All of the pictures I tried to take during the commencement ceremony turned out really blurry and crappy.

This is Neil's entire class. These were the only ones that did the online, accelerated program.

Neil and I after he had officially graduated.

The graduate.

Neil and I with my parents.

Neil bought our baby this cute little Thunder Onesie.

We went out to lunch to celebrate Neil's accomplishment.

We thought my dad was parking the car at the airport and then I found him getting his shoes shined. I thought it was pretty hilarious!

Neil mentioned earlier this year that his new year's resolutions were to starting going to an MMA gym and learn to play the violin, so my parents bought him a violin for his graduation present. Now the pressure's really on to actually follow through with that idea!


We had a family party at Shelley and Sean's house when we got home to celebrate again since not everyone could come to Arizona, obviously.
We played some Rock Band


And Just Dance

Even my Dad joined the dance party!



Me and Neil (and Jill and Shelley)

So, Congratulations to Neil for making it through such a tough program in addition to living a very stressful and busy life! You're the greatest!!
