I'm not sure why, but it seems like the days are flying by!! I can't believe its been over a month since I've posted and so much has happened. One of the biggest events is attending Jared's graduation at BYU. We felt so blessed that Lindsey & her boys, my parents, and Jacob and Janette could all attend. We are so thankful to John and Jan for letting us all stay at their home so we could all be together!!
Thursday, Russ and I went to the Marriott Center where Elder L. Whitney Clayton spoke to all the graduates, their parents and friends. One thing he said was, "When we love God, we become truly connected to Him. When we love our neighbor, we become truly connected to him or her. As we keep the commandments, we show our love for God. As we serve one another, we show our love for our neighbor." He urged graduates to consider an eternal perspective in choosing the kind of work they do as well as how they perform their work. "Make your work, whatever it may be, a calling or a
vocation and not just a job."

We got to visit grandma Larsen a couple of times.
Friday morning all of us attended Jared's commencement ceremony bright and early at 8:00 am. He received his degree in Communication Disorders & is planning on applying for his Masters Degree in Speech Pathology this year. We are so proud of all his hard work that has finally paid off.

We missed having Kristy and her family with us, but so happy to have these 3 cuties!!
After graduation all of us went to breakfast.
We stopped and saw grandma Larsen
Tytyn loved John's drums!
Saturday evening all of us went out to dinner. It was so nice to sit around and visit with some of our loved ones afterwards. Lovely weekend!! Thank you John and Jan:)
Congratulations Jared! My best friend has a degree in speech pathology and loves her job. She has almost convinced me to pursue a degree in that field. I can't believe how old your kids are becoming!
ReplyDeleteWe are proud of Jared. Your family is involved in some good things. I feel bad we missed being with the family when everyone gets together.
