(I apologize this is out of order, we obviously took the cruise after graduation, but we did move before graduation. It was crazy.)
Congrats Rob! You have worked so hard and I feel so lucky to have a husband who would keep education as a top priority.
So Rob's parents came with us to the general graduation. We sat up in the nose bleeds but had back rests since it was the very top seat. Rob sat with the MBA students which was a little funny because when they asked for the Doctorate students to stand the rest were all on the front on the floor and Rob stood up in the back all alone. It was a really great graduation. It was nice attending BYU graduation because it was gospel centered.President Uchtdorf was the speaker. It seemed like I was just sitting through general conference. I really felt the spirit and it was very motivating.
The second day was the individual schools graduation. First was the Law School Graduation at the Tabernacle. Elder Oaks was there but did not speak. A Judge spoke and talked about how some of the greatest judges in history came from those who graduated just prior or during the depression. It was in comparison to graduating during these difficult times. It was interesting.
Then we went to the Marriot school of Business Graduation. One of the retiring professors spoke and talked about keeping a balance in life. It was also good and motivating. Rob got a special hug from one of his favorite professors from USU undergrad who is now a Professor at BYU, Cassy Budd.
Thanks to all those who came and supported us! And a special congratulations to Sawyer for making it through 2 graduations!
After graduation we had a late dinner at Tucano's Brazilian grill.
Couldn't resist this photo!
Thanks to Stephanie and Taiton for watching the girls during graduation in the Cat House!
I hope everyone knows how greatful we are to have such a supportive family. Graduate school can really make you live frugal and we appreciate all those who helped with this effort and those who gave their love and support! We feel so lucky to have such a great family. We love you all.
