Happy Monday!
We had a wonderful weekend. Our daughter Angie J. Roling graduated with her Doctoral in Nurse Practice. She has a long history of nursing. Earning her BSN degree in 2007 and working as a floor nurse, a surgical nurse, and an ER nurse all at Mercy One hospital.

Obviously I am very proud of her. She accomplished the feat while be a Mother of 4 young children. Her support group included her Mother, her Mother-in-law and her wonderful husband Dr. Ben Roling.

After all the festivities from her pinning on Friday to her graduation commencement on Saturday, she and Ben had all of the family over for dinner on Saturday evening.

Angie and her Brother Mark, who is the General Manager of a large dealership in Dubuque. They have supported each other through the good and bad times and I feel very blessed to be their Father and Jeanne as their Mother.
Since this is a basically photography blog I have to mention that I purchased a new “bang around camera. It is the crop sensor Nikon Z50. I got it because I got tired of lugging around all my gear every day just to lug it back to the house with nothing on the sensor cards.
The Z50 is tiny compared to my Nikon D5 or for that matter the Nikon P1000. I take the Z50 and P1000 with me everywhere I go in a small back pack so there is no excuse for not getting “THAT” shot.
I am going to do my best to post on a more frequent basis.
Enjoy your day and be careful.
