“Major Watson”…I guess it does have a good ring to it. Although we still all prefer “Captain Watson” around here. A big shout out to Robert this month for completing his first six years as active duty Air Force. Wow! Cannot believe it’s been that long since he graduated dental school. At the same time I cannot believe that we have done so much in the last six years!
The promotion ceremony was pretty low key, held at the clinic’s conference room on May 16, 2014.
I took kids out of school.
Robert and Lt.Colonel Kobes.
Pinning on major.
And of course, kids got to help.
By the way, thanks to my friend, Vanessa Shockley, I got some great pictures from the ceremony. Like this one.
And one of my favorites right here.
Congratulations, Major Watson! We are very proud of you!
And then the big surprise!!!
My friend Mallory made this brilliant cake! It didn’t only look good, but tasted heavenly as well!
Amazing detail!
Well, I wanted to make a big deal out of Robert’s promotion, because, who am I kidding, we really don’t know if he’ll ever get promoted again in the AF-haha. We decided to serve a lunch with a dental flare. So everything we made had a funny “dental name”
For example, here was our Rinsing Station.
And these were our Cavity Cookies.
S
A few other fun names included Get-A-Mint Garlic Bites and Job Security Dessert.
All in all, this turned out to be a a fun lunch that Robert loved!
On the following night, Robert and I went out to celebrate at the Chinese place in nearby village of Godmanchester.
We invited a few of our friends to come along with us. And it turned out to be a fantastic night!
The weather was perfect for an after-dinner walk by the river. And we even managed to snap a group picture. So grateful we had such a good company to help us celebrate!
Cheers,
Lyana.
