Emmi Graduates!!

Friday was a happy day for Emmi, her family and Gam and Pa.  She completed her four years at Brigham Young University and officially received her certificate of graduation.  We are so proud of you Emmi!  Now you will move to the next step in your life's journey.  Emmi will be working full time at Dugway for the summer and will be making some life decisions for her future.  Right now, though, we are going to celebrate her accomplishment.

 Here we are on the very front row and waiting for the graduates to come in.  We have no idea which side of the stadium she will walk in.  It's a 50/50 chance that she will walk in in our side.  We aren't hopeful.

 Oh my gosh!  There she was rounding the corner.  Neal reached out and grabbed her hand.  It was so exciting to see her right there.

 The program with her name.  How exciting.

 Saint even came to the graduation.  He very obediently slid right under the seat.  Abby has done such a wonderful job training Saint.

 Here is Emmi heading toward the podium to get her official papers!

 Pictures outside after the ceremony.  Such a beautiful day!  Smiles all around.  As there should be.

 A very proud grandmother!

After all the pictures and congratulations, Emmi headed toward the bookstore to turn in her cap and gown and pick up her actual certificate of graduation.  What an incredible day.
We then headed out of the very busy BYU campus and head to Salt Lake for lunch at the Gateway.

 Neal bought Emmi the Hawaiian bead necklace.  We are so proud of you Emmi Girl!!

 This is the kind of spring day it was.  The blossoms and flowers we bursting with color.

We love you Emmi and wish you all the happiness and success in your future adventures and decisions.
