Friday we left in plenty of time to get to Ephraim and see some of the Scandinavian Festival. However, we had a flat tire on the freeway in North Las Vegas and ended up leaving 3 hours later than expected. We had the great idea of having a picnic lunch on the way, but ended up having a "picnic" in the car instead. At least we didn't have to stop, though. We arrived about an hour before graduation.
I saw a lot of old friends and caught up with a few. I walked in the rainy weather without a coat. I reminisced with my husband and then we turned around Saturday morning and came home.
Zack always strikes me as too serious, so I like this picture of my brother-in-law. (Zackary is the one on the left.)
This is how boys show love?
The happy grad.
I asked for a picture with the five of us. Apparently 5+3=5. (Not a bad pic of me.)
All too soon, my dear.
Trying to be helpful I convinced Zack to leave his diploma cover with me so he could get pictures unhindered by an awkward rectangle. Luke decided to chew on it. (That was odd because he hasn't done it in a while. You can see his attraction to said cover in the group shot above.) Rather than have baby molar marks on it I gave it to my MIL. Now, I love my mother-in-law, but she can be scattered. When we got back to the house she had no idea where the diploma cover was or any recollection that I gave it to her. I felt horrible. Helpful Heidi was not so helpful. I apologized to Zack, but he didn't really believe me that it was lost. "I didn't think you would do that." Luckily it was found and it all ended happily. *Sigh* I had better keep track of my responsibilities on my own next time.
