"Dr. Compton"

The girls and I are so excited to announce that Robbie is now "Dr. Compton"!  After 5 years of hard work, he successfully defended his dissertation and now has a Ph.D. in Education Leadership.

We celebrated as a family by going to the Melting Pot.  I was a little nervous between the sharp implements and the hot liquid, but we still had a great time.  The girls enjoyed wearing their special shirts:

 Their favorite course was the dessert course...of course!  Check out the concentration on this face!

I was excited to surprise Robbie with a party in his honor for some of our friends and family.  When we walked in and he realized who was all there, he appeared pretty shocked.

We are so happy that friends and family from all over the state could join us!  We enjoyed visiting with everyone!  There were several yummy cakes (one of which was brought by one of his co-workers with our picture on it.  It was a hit with the kids who were there who enjoyed deciding which Compton they wanted to eat :) ) and other great food.  Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate!

We are so proud of you, Robbie!  We love you!
