The Graduate's

Every four years or so we have a stream of graduates from highschool and college. This year we had 4 family members graduate within a month of each other. It made for a busy month! First one to start off the festivities was Jourdan, Justin's sister. She graduated from the University of Utah with her Bachelors in Health Promotions. Right Jourdan? She is very into eating healthy and exercising.She is my inspiration to eat better and exercise more. =) We were all so proud of her and all her hard work. She will go on to do many great things. I know that Justin's mom is especially glad that one more kid is through college.

Next up was my baby sister Natalie Graduating from Logan High! She is a smartie pants and will be joining the forces of red this fall at the University of Utah. Justin approves. =) 

She made her own special medals graduating from Hogwarts. They were pretty legit drawings and medals of what you could get if Hogwarts were real. There was a little tussel with administration saying that Natalie and her friends couldn't wear them. Luckily they had some teachers on their side and everyone loved them anyways.

We were happy to support Natalie in graduating even though my mom made her do the whole cap and gown thing. It's a big thing to accomplish. She will also go on to do great things. She is a smart, hard working, creative and  responsible lady. 

Then we had some California graduates that we really wish we could have been there for. Our brother-in-law Ben Salisbury graduated from USC with his Ph.D in Paino something.....I believe Ben correct me if I am wrong. I just know that he has been going to school for what seems like forever. I am sure it seemed longer to him to actually have to go to school. We are so proud of him and glad that he is done! At least for now. =) He has allready got a great job lined up. We were hoping that now they'd move back to Utah but I think that California has claimed them for good. It's all good cause I know that one day Ben will write the music for an awesome movie and maybe someday win an oscar! 

Our other California Graduation was our Sister-in-Law Neha! She graduated from Dental school so she's a Dr. as well. Unfortunately this is only a break untill she starts a 3 year pediatric residiency. But the hardest part is behind her. She is very passionate and smart about teeth. I really want to show her before and after pictures of my sister Suzanna's mouth cause it was one in a million alright. She will do great in her residency and will be a great dentist. I would trust her with my teeth maybe we'll have to visit her more to get a free cleaning. j/k. We used to do that when my Grandpa was a dentist whenever we visited we got a cleaning.

So I think we are good on the graduating for a while now. I hope so. We are so proud of them and all their hard work. It's nice to get those big things checked off. I know I am glad to be done with school. Justin not so much. He'll be going back to school in the fall at weber state for computer science stuff. Heaven help us. I hope it all works out ok. Yay Graduates of 2013! You did it!
