Graduation!!

It’s official! Nate received his MBA from BYU on Friday! It has been a really bittersweet time – we’re excited for the adventures ahead and enjoyed celebrating all the hard work and experiences we both had while he’s been in school, but also sad as we prepare to say good-bye to so many good friends. We had a great day celebrating with friends and family – my parents were able to come (for that and my niece’s baby blessing) and Nate’s parents came down for the graduation, then the rest of his family made the trek down for a little celebration party at the park. A few pictures from our day:

Nate’s dad was smart and brought binoculars – they kept Bennett entertained most of graduation. And – where’s Waldo? See if you can spot Nate (pretty much in the middle of the picture)

We went back up to campus on Monday to get a few more shots – the boys really wanted to be in some with Nate. I should have thought to have them dressed up again…oh well.
