Presenting Mr. John Marshall Hardage J.D.!

Two weekends ago we celebrated a BIG milestone in John's life--he graduated from Baylor Law School!
My favorite part was the regalia he got to wear....That cap is priceless...

Following the ceremony we stopped by a reception at the law school before heading to La Fiesta for lunch. It was great to see John and his law school buddies relax and celebrate a day they thought would never come! Those guys worked really hard to earn that J.D.!

(This is where John studied lived for the last three years.)

The entire weekend was especially memorable and we're really thankful to all of our friends and families who came to celebrate with us. On a particularly sentimental note, John's mom gave him his grandfather's Baylor Law School class ring from 1954! John was really touched to receive it and wore the ring during the ceremony.

I couldn't be more proud of John. I know the last three years have certainly shaped and refined him more than he'll ever realize and I can't wait to see the many ways the Lord will use him in the future!
