Partway through his graduation party, Aaron pulled me aside and gave me a little box. Inside was this anchor necklace! He said it was a thank you gift for supporting him the last two years while he worked on his MBA. I love it 'cause #1 the symbolism of being an anchor #2 I have a boatload (pardon the pun) of anchor shirts!

Aaron's Graduation Party
I was so excited about Aaron's graduation, I couldn't wait to throw him a party! It had to have a theme of course and that was CHALKBOARDS!
Really this was my chance to do all the sorts of things I always wanted to do for a summer party... like food trucks! I had the Le Petit Poutine truck cater the party!
Mmmm delicious poutine!
And there had to be ice cream! I had the Eat Me Ice Cream sandwich cart come by!
Everyone could choose from vanilla, chocolate or peanut butter ice cream sandwiches.
Aaron was pretty excited about his ice cream sandwich.
There were also veggie trays and charcuterie from Wegmans.
It was great to have our friends and family with us to celebrate. It was so good to catch up with everyone.
It was pretty much all Aaron's favorite things!

Aaron graduates with his MBA!
Today Aaron graduated from the University of Rochester's Simon School with his MBA!
We waited through over 500 students to watch Aaron, who was the next to last person, get his diploma. Unbelievably, I only got pics of him walking... not actually getting his diploma. I even had my long lense so I could see him from the balcony of Eastman Theatre.
Aaron's mom and sister flew into town to attend his graduation.
And my parents drove up to join us also.
Aaron has worked hard these past two years and I am so proud of his accomplishment!
