Fernando can now officially be called Dr Fernando Tovar and/or Captain Tovar as of Saturday. That's right 5 years of early hour studying and many tests later, Fernando has a new prefix he can technically used when ordering airline tickets or filling out surveys. In all seriousness, we are all really proud of his accomplishments. Fernando's parents, sisters, and one of his aunts were able to come as well as my brother and sister-in-law.
The ceremony was impressive with all the coats of many colors. The Marine Band played Pomp and Circumstance as well as other fantastic songs. Live bands always make music better. From the pictures you can gather how the kids enjoyed the pomp. They were pretty good considering the DVD player decided not to function after they selected their movie and had their head phones on.
I don't know what we are going to do now that he isn't a professional student. Good bye long Christmas and summer breaks. Hello adulthood.

Congratulations, Fernando!!!!!!
Adulthood isn't so bad...now that you have finished your education, you can start saving for the kids'. :-)
Congratulations Tovar family. I am so excited for your new adventure coming up. I loved the slide show.
That is really impressive! I'm still patting myself on the back for earning a BA back in 2005...you're hard work is inspiring. We're excited to hear what comes next in the exciting lives of the Tovars!
It's such a bittersweet moment. I remember that one moment I was feeling so proud and excited then the next I realized - HEY we don't get summer vacation anymore! NOt to mention any other non-leave taking breaks. I'm not sure it's all worth it.
We are so proud of you, Dr. Fernando! We wish we could have been there to see you on this amazing day. I am glad Rachelle put a slide show together so we could see clips of your special day. CONGRATULATIONS!!
Thank your for sharing some pictures of an amazing day. Fernando is an inspiration and your family is an inspiration. Way to go Fernando, You are to be congratulated, as well as your parents, your wife and your children.
Congratulations!!!!
Congrats!! We miss you guys. Why not move to the wasatch front and be Dr and Mrs Tovar of Sandy Utah? Then we could see you all the time
What are you talking about no good pictures? You have some great ones. It was fun seeing you guys on graduation (or maybe we just saw Fernando). Have fun in Texas and with the move.
I loved the slide show. It was more inspirational than I remember Ben's graduation being. Good for you guys!!
