Graduation

Well, it's taken me long enough to get around to posting about graduation that I considered not even worrying about it, but then I remembered what a glorious thing it was and decided it's still worth blogging about! 

Preston and I both graduated with our bachelors degrees on April 23 and 24.  It was just great!  I found out that the School of Family Life (Preston's school) had a separate convocation from the rest of the College of Family Home and Social Sciences (where my School of Social Work was).  Since Preston had to speak and all, I just decided to go to his graduation and walk there.  It was a good decision I think :)  It went pretty quick and it was fun because we were both involved in the convocation. Preston gave his valedictorian speech (which went REALLY well!) and I got to accompany a song that one of the faculty had written with a harp part that I arranged. I got a little help from my former teacher :)  Preston also got to be one of the singers in the song, so that was fun too!  I was so proud of Preston because he's so talented and does well in everything! His speech was amazing, as we all knew it would be.

We went to lunch with Preston's family before graduation and then we got to go to dinner with them after graduation too!  My family was there as well, but they had to get back up north after pictures so they didn't stay for dinner.  It was just an all around great day! I've been asked several times since then if I'm a student and for the first time in a really really really long time I have to say no! It's kinda crazy!  I'm so excited to have a year off though before going back to grad school ... assuming that will work out! 

Anyway, here's some pictures to enjoy! (My computer uploads picture backwards, so they're all in reverse order ... oh well, you probably can't really tell when they were taken anyway!)
