Dr. Higginbotham, DDS

It's official! Cory graduated from USC's School of Dentistry Friday. We couldn't be more thrilled that this long journey has come to an end. We didn't attend the general USC ceremony, but the dental school graduation was outside under a tent on a very hot day. Poor Cory stood in line in the sun with his cap and gown on waiting to march in under the tent. Because of the heat, we didn't spend much time taking pictures, as Cory was anxious to get rid of the heavy wardrobe.

Brady is so proud of his papa for working so hard to graduate. He joined us about half-way through this process, so he really has no idea.

Cory's family was so supportive, sitting through nearly three hours without complaint. L to R: Dad, Mom with Isaiah, brother Devan, Grandma, Grandpa and sister Ashley - Isaiah's mom.






Brady and Grandpa entertained each other during the ceremony. To say that Brady's head was drenched with sweat would not be an exaggeration.

He got pictures with his biggest supporters.




Brady woke up early that morning and didn't fall asleep until we headed for the cars around 2pm.
