Kristi's GRADUATION!!! Wahoooo!

Happy Graduation to Kristi!!!

Kristi graduated from ISU's Dental Hygiene program this past weekend. We are all so proud of her accomplishment. The program is known for it's difficulty and intense training, and she survived it and did well in her classes despite her emotional (and life changing) roller coaster of a year. I couldn't be more proud of her. I'm not sure I could have done that. Congrats Sis!

My whole family came for the event. My Dad was very kind and flew Spencer, the boys, and myself to Pocatello so we wouldn't have to drive there and back in one day. It was an eventful ride. Benson freaked out after take-off and immediately fell asleep (didn't wake up until the wheels landed) and I had to use the "barf bag" for the first time in my life. I got a nasty flu last week and wasn't totally over it on Friday. But, I felt great after it all came up!! :) My Dad let Spencer fly most of the way (until I lost it) and Reece was happily playing angry birds on Spencer's I-Touch. Spence and I opted to drive home and let other family members fly back!
The ceremony was great, but the boys needed some exercise. My Dad took them for a run up the stairs to get the jiggles out.

This is the fam after the ceremony.

The next day (Saturday) we went out to dinner to Bone Fish Grill!! It was heavenly. The fish there was amazing. Both grandparents came, as well as Kristi's roomie and two best friends--Chance and Tom.

Here's a pic of the family. Notice Natalie is standing on her tippy-toes to make me look short.

Beautiful Nicole! Isn't she darling!
