Congrats to my little brother, Micah! He graduated with high honors from American Leadership Academy this past weekend! We are so proud of him...and even more thrilled that he will be attending and playing baseball for Southern Utah University! I'm so excited to have another T-bird in the family!
The graduation ceremony was great! It's a small school, so it was nice not to have to sit through hours of names being read! And Micah proved to be Mr. Popularity as he had a blast with all of his friends! And of course, they read his ENTIRE name as he accepted his diploma: Micah Judd Kalanikiakahionu'uanu Red Bear Across the Water Keeno! Yes, the announcer read that whole thing! It was awesome! Here are some pictures of that night...

New Graduate!
Thomas W. Douglas, MBA
Tommy and I both now have 3 letters after each of our names: Tehani L. Douglas, ATC (certified athletic trainer) and Thomas W. Douglas, MBA!!!!!
Yesterday Tommy graduated with his MASTER'S degree of Business Administration! Yea! I am so proud of him! He's worked so hard and he finally earned it! He was so cute up there as he received his diploma cover and they hooded him with his official Master's degree hood! He was also lucky to graduate alongside his brother, Spencer, who was receiving his Masters of Accountancy.
It was so fun going back to SUU and seeing some old friends! And it was such an awesome graduation ceremony! We were lucky to have President Thomas S. Monson (Tommy's namesake) as the commencement speaker! He gave such an amazing and inspiring speech to the new graduates...I absolutely loved it!
Our 2 Masters graduates, Tommy and Spencer!
My grandmother from Hawaii sent them beautiful leis for the occasion!
