Ryan's Graduation

About a month ago, we had a huge event happen in our family.  Ryan graduated from Iowa State University with a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering.  His parents were able to join us for dinner and the ceremony.  We were all very proud of his huge accomplishment.  Below are some pictures from that day.  He looks pretty spiffy in his cap and gown!  Congrats Dr. Snell!!!!
