We are finally here. It was surreal. There ceremony took place in Cleveland at the Church of the Covenant. As he came in, my eyes became misty as I realized our dream had finally come true. All his hard work had paid off. Then my eyes betrayed me again as they welled up with tears as the announcer read, "Dr. Matthew Ellingson." He has worked SO hard. I love you, babe. You are AMAZING.
Super boy fell asleep {2pm isn't the most family friendly time for a ceremony} in Papa's arms, then slept on the bench with poopy pants and all.
Matt's parents and biggest brother came to support us. It means the world to us. Thanks for coming.
We love our support group and cheering section.
Matt commissioned as a Captain in the Army after the graduation.
My mom and dad came to support us too. It means so much to us. We have a great family.
I used my fish-eye lens to capture the whole church. It was really an ornate church.
I love the Gothic rose window.
J & G tried daddy's special hat on for size.
Both J & G kept saying how prod of their daddy they were!

What a great day! You guys are amazing and you are officially married to a DOCTOR!! I'm sure it's been a long road but totally worth it.
Congrats! It makes me teary eyed too, there's something about accomplishing huge goals like this that does that to me. Time almost slows down as you look back at the time it took and all experiences to get there. Your fish eye lens is super cool...
YAY!!! How long have you been dreaming of this post!?! So sad we couldn't be there. We're so proud of you and Matt! Congrats. Now on to the next adventure . . .
Congratulations Ellingsons!!!
