the graduate

jeffrey, the graduate! today jeffrey became on official byu graduate in manufacturing engineering technology.

here is jeffrey waiting for the procession to the graduation ceremony. it was a beautiful day despite the cold weather and the occasional snow. hehe. no but really it was a happy day. we were so glad that this day had arrived.

it was so fun to see all the graduates lining up. it started snowing so i ran up into the marriot center while jeffrey and all the graduates had to wait in the cold and snow. they were good sports.

here are the graduates entering the marriot center. the talks were really good. jeffrey's dad, craig came to join me before the ceremony started. it was so nice to have him there with me. my mom was kind enough to watch elliot and sam while i was there.

i am so glad i got this picture. this is jeffrey's good friend ryan. he helped hook jeffrey up with the job interview that has turned into his future job with avery dennison. thanks ryan!

craig is so proud of jeffrey. it is so neat to see a father be so proud of his son. i love my in-laws. they are so great. we will miss them so much when we move away.

we are so happy! this is so great. it feels good to have jeffrey done with school. look at our smiles. yes, we are ecstatic! wish us luck as we move into the next stage of life. we don't know what we are getting into but we are excited!

as we were leaving we bumped into my mother's parents. hi grandma and grandpa! they were there with my aunt and uncle for my cousin's graduation. we were glad we just happened to bump into them out of the hundreds of people there.

to end this post i will leave you with a picture that jeffrey took tonight. the beautiful Y all lit up to celebrate with all of the graduates!! congrats to any other graduates out there!
