Midwestern Pharmacy Graduation

The day of Pharmacy Graduation finally arrived on June 12, 2009. After 3 LONG years of school, Rich received his Doctorate of Pharmacy degree from Midwestern University. He officially became known as Dr. Richard Bishop {yes, he'll get mad at me for saying that...but hey, he earned the title}. Our Little Family
"I did it!"
(Rich was so embarrassed about this shot!)
The whole clan
Rooi, Amanda, Dean, Rich, Parker, Braden, Becca, Linda The Boys
Jason, Jeff, Bryan, Brian, Josh, Rich
The Bastians and the BishopsThe girls (minus Talene)

Now is my turn to brag...you only graduate from pharmacy school once, right?? Rich has worked so hard these last 3 years to make it possible for me to be able to stay home. Between work and school he was often gone about 60-70 hours a week. Then, he had projects and tests on top of that. He always managed to make time for though and managed to graduate with honors. I don't think that I gave him the credit he deserved when he told me that he was graduating with honors. Then, at the graduation banquet the night before, they listed all of those that graduated with honors. Suddenly, I realized how big of an accomplishment this was...especially since Rich worked more than most students in his class. I am just so proud of him and happy that he is done!!! Way to go Rich!

Hooray! And I think you should brag a little about how YOU survived pharmacy school as well. Your job was absolutely just as hard.

Wow Rich, honors is not an easy task, way to go! And Becca, I agree with your sister, you were no slouch these last three years either. Horray for finishing and celebrating this huge milestone. You both deserve the spoils of your efforts!
