Celebrating Lisa - Our Summa Cum Laude Graduate!

Here is the newest teacher in the Isenbarger clan:

 Lisa Marie Isenbarger, Class of 2013, Utah Valley University

Summa Cum Laude

 The university had a huge sign welcoming the new grads.

Another university sign. 

Lisa has marched in and stands with her friends. That's her right in the very center. (Her hand is by her face.)

 A view of the podium and the education faculty.

 Lisa walks across the stage to her family's thunderous applause.

 She is positively glowing!

 Holding her diploma, she heads back to her seat.

 Craig, me, Jessica, and Andrew with Lisa after the ceremony.

 Zina joined us for the ceremony and for lunch.
(Lisa is wearing her distinguished graduate medal.)

Lunch at Tocano's - a family favorite. Lisa wears a lei given to her by Andrew's mother, Laurie, who is from Hawaii and met us for lunch.

The wait staff sing to Lisa and to her former roommate, Amanda, who was celebrating her thirtieth birthday.

 Some of Lisa's closest friends: Mocha, Amanda, and Lindsey. 

Congratulations, Lisa! I am so very, very proud of you, and think you will be a terrific teacher.
