Graduation!

I did it!

I am FINALLY done with school! I now have my Bachelor's of Communications.

Graduation was so fun. I will never understand why people choose not to walk in the ceremonies. I needed to walk, I needed the recognition and the applause. It's not easy going to school with a baby. But I am so glad I saw it through.

My mom, dad, auntie and sister Molly all came out from NH for the celebrations. Rob's parents and brother Clark came up from Utah. Rob's mom made me the most amazing dress to wear. I loved it!

It was such an amazing experience having my family in Rexburg, Idaho. I was finally able to show them all where I have been living the past few years. It was great to show them the campus. They were all very impressed with how large it is and how beautiful it is.

After graduation we all drove down to Utah. My mom flew out of SLC airport and my dad, auntie and sister stayed for 5 more days. We toured the Salt lake area, seeing the Great Salt Lake itself and also touring Temple Square. There were lots of buffalo on Antelop Island, which is where we went to see the lake.

It was probably the best time I have ever had with my family.

After everyone flew home, Rob, Katie, Ryan and I came back to Rexburg. I sulked around the house for a few days, enjoying my time off and also wondering why I hadn't heard from the jobs I interviewed for.

Then, on Monday, I got the call. Wells Fargo offered me the position I interviewed for!! I was so excited to have next puzzle piece in place. The HR rep for the area said I will start after my background is checked. I excitedly told her, "that's great, I have an AWESOME background!". yea, I was a bit embarrassed I said that, but it's true. And I was just so excited.

So now I will get my fingerprinting done, and probably start training next week. I will be working at the Rigby location, about 10 minutes from Rexburg. I also get benefits! So exciting and relieving.

The month of April seems to be a month full of blessings and rewards. I am so grateful.

Photos! The scenic/animal ones were taken at Atelope Island.

The Salt Lake

Does he ever put his Ipad2 down?

We were so close to the buffalo!

This photo looks like we are in another country. Is there really something so beautiful here in America?

The Salt Lake is saltier than the ocean. Only brine shrimp live in it.

This photo was taken through my windshield glass. Hence some reflections.

The whole group! Dad is hidden behind Molly.

Katie Pointing at the buffalo, she loved them.

I got to sit on stage for participating in the choir. No, I don't sing, but how could I resist the spotlight? I am the shortest one on stage, in case you can't find me.

Never thought I would have this photo. But I am so glad I do.
