We were so happy that the whole family could be out in Utah this year for Em's graduation. It was even nicer that the days of the graduation ceremonies were just beautiful. Em decided to show us some of the beautiful blossoming trees. Here are some of the shots we got on Thursday before the general university graduation.
Here's Emily holding up the "Y" on the mountain
A great shot of Em in front of the beautiful mountains

Jim, Emily, and Jimmie - A very proud day

Here's Grandma Foulk and Em
Steve and I - very proud of our graduate
We attended the graduation which featured a surprise address from Pres. Uchtdorf who was attending since his grandson was graduating. As we were waiting for the ceremony to start, someone found Sarah Kunz's name in the program so we decided to text Milan and Leslie to see if they were there. Unbelievably, in that huge Marriott Center, they were sitting about 16 rows in front of us in our section. Crazy. It was very fun to talk to them. After the ceremony, we got this photo of the graduates. There were even more than we knew.
Scott Kunz, Emily and Jimmie, Sarah Kunz, and her fiance Brigham
The next day was Emily's college convocation. It started at 8am. Jimmie was pretty excited to see Mommy graduate as you can see
He made it through the ceremony but Daddy did have to take him out in the hall. :)
There she is.....headed up to get her diploma
I think she's happy to be done....what do you think?
With her proud Grandma
The traditional shot in front of the BYU sign - NICE!!!
We had to get one by the Education College building
Wahoo!!!
There she is at the cougar emblem by the stadium....
...and shaking the hand of the famous Cougar statue.
Ummmm, we may have had a little too much time waiting in line to take the cougar photo
Uhhh...yep, definitely too much time.
But it was sure fun hanging out together!!
Adios friend....It's been a fun four + years!!
Congratulations, Emily. We are all so proud of your accomplishments!!
HAHA! Thanks for including some of those precious gems...<3
ReplyDeleteSo glad you guys were able to come out! Loved having you all there. Thanks for sharing these shots! Hadn't seen some of these before. Thanks for all your support! Love you!
Wow! What place is that? It is gorgeous! My daughter is also graduating this year but I will not be able to visit her ceremony because I am in hospital but I have planned a surprise party for her in one of the home studios NYC. I’ll be fine in some days and then will make her party a really good one.
