Default Certifications vs. Degree

Which would you think best to obtain first? I am currently a Network Admin / Web Designer for a small (~50 employee) company. I pretty much got the position because I had worked for the company as a laborer and got in good with the owners of the company. Now with 2 years experience here, another year as a technician at a computer store, and more mid-level to advanced skills (10+ years of personal experience, I am 22), I am at a loss on what to do. I could go spend 2 years at the local community college and get an assoc. degree that may or may not help me into another position, or I can work on getting MCSE certified, and hope I can get an employer to overlook the lack of degree.

What advice does anyone have on my situation?
