BYU Graduation!

The two graduates.........

Jeff

Sean

--------------------

This has been a whirlwind 2 weeks. Matt and flew to Salt Lake City on a Thursday night for the graduation of my brother Sean and our brother-in-law Jeff. We had so much fun with everybody from both sides of the family. We stayed in Lehi with Dave and Christine and then drove to Provo for big events. Sean and Jeff both graduated on Friday. Jeff graduated from Law School and Sean graduated with his MBA. Way to go you two!! They both have families and yet they fulfilled all of the responsibilities to the utmost. I feel so happy for both of them.

There are tons of pictures......so enjoy!!

J.J. and Zack! What a handsome couple.

You can't see this picture very well, but Elder Dallin H. Oaks was at Jeff's graduation.
Love it!

Jeff bought Ashlee this great dress right before the graduation, and gave her roses.

Isn't that sweet.

I had to post this picture, because after we did a goofy picture we all heard a laugh and down went J.J.. Do you see how much help we all are? Thank heavens for Zack!

Matt likes to take odd pictures sometimes!

My parents with Sean!

Sean and Melissa with their family.
The boys had cap and gowns and they looked very cute in them.

My sister-in-law Christine and my Mom.

Dave and Sean were teasing Dad, because he was told to suck in his stomach.
So, Sean is resting his arm on Dad's stomach and Dave is setting a perfect example of sucking in...

We had a luncheon at the church on Saturday. Very fun!!
