Year in Review: Part 6 - Dan's Graduation

I'd like to take a moment to say... COTA was an awful experience! Both for Dan and for Orson and me. Dan would leave Sunday afternoon and drive 2 hours to Tuscon, stay for the week, and came home exhausted late Friday night. It was painful to talk to Dan every night and hear what horrible things he had to go through everyday. We made it though! Dan graduated the top of his class in academics. And it was great to know that he went through all that for our family.

The graduation was SUPER family oriented. They let the kids of the CO's go sit by them if they wanted.
