These pictures should be at the end... After the ceremony they wanted all of the newly sworn in firefighters to pose by the fire truck outside and of course it ended up as a prank! Other firefighters were on top of the truck and sprayed the "probies" with water! Skylar is the fourth from the left.
Skylar and his good friend Cody who happens to be a fellow firefighter. He works for the Gila River Fire Dept. and has been a HUGE help to Skylar especially during the academy. Thanks Cody!
Outside for the final picture by the fire truck.
Cody gave Skylar this hat and I couldn't resist blogging about it. It is the two things he loves the most...Firefighting and Hunting!
We took Stock Family pictures on Friday night, then went to El Rico's for dinner. It was actually a SURPRISE birthday party for Marlee who will be 21 on the 9th!
Skylar's mom and dad, Cheryl and Dennis. These are candid pictures, so no smiles, but I got both of them at the same time!
The kids playing with Marlee's balloons. At the end, all of the balloons ended up in the sky!
Uncle Beau chasing Slade! Slade LOVES to be chased especially by Beau. I think they did that for a good part of the night.
The Stock grandkids minus Maddie. Kinley, Slade, Bostyn and Daisy. I think they look like they could all be siblings!
On Saturday we headed over to Hamilton High for Skylar's graduation! We got there early and secured front row seats! Although, Skylar ended up sitting in the 2nd row and we couldn't really see him to well during the ceremony.
Skylar is right in the middle again with his shoulder facing the camera.
Skylar and his cousin's husband Elliot. Elliot is a Tempe Police Officer and was able to come to the graduation on his lunch break. Elliot has been a huge help during the Tempe process.
Stock Family! Dennis, Beau, Daisy, Marlee, Cheryl, Skylar, Slade, Me, Lyndsay and Erin. Everyone except Lyndsay and Erin traveled from Utah to be here for Skylar. Marlee even missed her own graduation from beauty school! Thanks again everyone!!

I'm so excited for Skylar and you both. It is so wonderful that he has graduated. I bet it feels good!!!
Thank you for having us over to help celebrate on Saturday!
Wow that's awesome! Congrats!
Kari, that is awesome about Skylar. Congrats! It really is a great job- my Dad has been a firefighter for 17 years. I remember when he graduated from the academy- he was so excited! And to look at him now- he's a deputy chief! It's such a great opportunity. You guys will have so much fun with it. You get this whole new family- the guys get really close. I remember spending a lot of time at the station- even Thanksgiving once. You form great friendships! All the wives have a blast, and when I got married all my "uncles" from the fire dept. came. Good luck with everything- & congrats! I'm happy for you guys!
