Still catching up! I will get there one day soon! :) June 1, 2012 my boy graduated from high school! Didn't he go to kindergarten just last month??? Guess not -it would be weird to have a kindergartener at BYU. lol Graduation was so bittersweet for me. I was so emotional I didn't know if I would make it through the graduation without being thrown out for uncontrollable sobbing -not kidding. The weeks leading up to then I couldn't keep it together but the good news is that I made it through the ceremony without too many tears. Yay for me! On a serious note, I am so proud of this boy of mine who is seriously one of the most amazing people I know. Seriously. AMAZING. He is so righteous and ALWAYS does the right thing even when it is hard. He turns to the scriptures and prayer often for guidance in his life. He spoke at seminary graduation for our stake and he was wonderful. He made people laugh and cry. After the seminary graduation a member of our stake presidency told me that "HD is someone that grown men can look up to" -true story my friends. I realize I am his momma but the awesomeness shines out of that kid. To say I am blessed to be his mother is a huge understatement and I am in awe every day that Heavenly Father picked me to take care of this boy. Anywho, back to graduation. It was a great event and people came from near and far to celebrate with us.
A grey morning -later that day we would be under a tornado warning with a horrible storm and sirens going off everywhere. I was very happy that his graduation wasn't at 5:00pm.

Sierra was celebrating only one more year of early morning seminary for her...or that her brother was leaving soon....or it was just hot and she decided to cool off :)
