He DID IT!

Prepare yourself for a butt load of pictures. I went a little picture crazy. But can you blame me? It's not everyday that Jamie graduates! YAY! We had a fun filled, action packed weekend. So here we go!

This picture was taken on Thursday, just a few hours before convocation. We were all waiting around for Jamie to get home from his last exam. In this picture is Mike (Jamie's Brother), Logan and Reese (Jamie's sister Melissa's kids), Lindsey (Mike's kid), and Tyler. These four have a blast together. Lots of laughs from these kiddos this weekend.


Sorry for some reason these pictures are out of order. This is Jamie after receiving his diploma cover.
Here is Jamie, Me, and Melissa at the Graduation Banquet(Thursday night). The dinner was quite awful. But the company was great.

Here is a picture of Jamie's Mom and Dad and us.

Because of silly seating Jeremy had to sit on the other side of the table all by his lonesome.

Another picture of Jamie getting his diploma cover at Convocation (Thursday night). It was such a happy time!

By this time Tyler had just had it. He wasn't in the mood for standing in any pictures. I think that I really need to learn how to stand while getting my picture taken. I look goofy!

Another diploma cover picture out of order.

Yay! He's done!

This was after the commencement ceremony(Friday morning). Great talks. Jamie's parents are very proud of the accomplishment that Jamie has made.

Jamie and our boys. Carter slept through the whole thing. That was really nice.

Our little family.

The crowd of graduates. It's amazing how many people were in that gym.

The speaker at graduation was M. Russel Ballard. He was outstanding!

Me and doodie after commencement.

Here is another picture out of order. This is Carter when we went swimming after commencement.

I am not sure why everyone has to get pictures taken by this sign but we did.

This is Noah, Melissa's youngest. He is 17 days younger than Carter. He has the most amazing hair I have ever seen. It stands straight up. Nothing can get that hair to lay flat. He is a cutie!

Here is the crowd of Hillman's swimming.

After our swimming adventure we went to Winger's. This is Marg, Gord, Mike and Lindsey.

Here is Riss, Halle, and Lindsey.

Miss and Reese.

This is Tyler and Logan the day that Missy and Jeremy left. These little guys are 10 days apart. They are the best of buds.

Saturday night we went to the temple with Marg and Gord. We figured that they would have no reason to come back to Rexburg any time soon.

Me and Jamie on our way home after the temple.

After our session at the temple we went back to our place and changed then we went to Applebee's for dinner. This is Marg and Gord before our food came.

Whew! What a weekend we had! It seemed like graduation would never come, then once it did it zoomed by so quickly. I am so proud of Jamie and his accomplishment! It hasn't been easy for him to get to this point but here we are, DONE with school, at least for now. Jamie wants to go back in a year or so and get his Master's degree. We'll cross that bridge when it comes.

CONGRATULATIONS BABE!
