Congratulations to Stephen who graduated the Las Vegas Metro Police Academy on July 6th! It has been a looong six months at our house for everyone while Stephen has been attending the academy and trying to squeeze in some family together time. Thankfully now that part of our life is over with and we're on to the next phase. And do you know what I think the best part about having a police officer for a husband is? They only work four days a week so he gets to be home with us for three whole days which I think is going to be awesome!


He is so excited about becoming a police officer and I couldn't be more proud of him. I guess the past few months have all been worth it - but I am soo glad that part's over!!!
Congratulations Dad! Ryker loves to say his dad's a police-man. We love you !

Wow, congrats to Stephen! i had no idea that he was going to be a police officer. he has an awesome work schedule - i think every husband should have that schedule :) It is so nice to have the school thing done...i am glad you guys are on to the next phase of life :)

Congratulations, Stephen. I bet his favorite part of being a cop is being able to carry around a gun all the time. The four day schedule will be so nice. I hope things calm down for you guys now that he's out of the academy.

YAY STEPHEN!
I hope this means if officer Mohler ever catches us ridin' dirty he'll let us go without a ticket?? ;) J/K. Seriously though, that's a huge deal! AWESOME! Loved the pics too.

I am so proud of him!! I love all the pictures you got. He looks great in the uniform. My favorite is of Ryker squeazing his neck. That little boy is the best. Congratulations again to Stephen! We were thinking maybe we could take you guys out to dinner or something. :-)

Yay! That is awesome! I will pray for the Lord's protection over him while he is working. Tell him thanks for vowing to protect and serve. That is so great. Congrats to you guys!

Congrats Stephen! I'm sure life is much easier now that he's done with the academy. It is definitely a team effort trying to get through that. I have bad memories from when Chris was in the fire academy!! Be safe Stephen!

Awww!! Stephen!!! You look so cute in your little outfit!! So do you get to grow your hair out now?
That's exciting Stephen is home for 3 whole days out of the week. How nice! I can't believe Ryker is going to learn how to work a gun before I do. Lucky kid.
