Mom's Graduation....

So this weekend we went up to Logan for Brian's Mom's graduation from Utah State. She got her degree in special education. We are really proud of her, it has been a long time coming, and is something that she has been working on since before any of us were even a thought in the back of Mom and Dad's minds. She went to school until she had kids, then took time off to raise them, but know that all of us are grown, we are happy that she is now able to finish her degree and start her professional life. It was a great time, Heather, Dave and the kids came down as well as a lot of the rest of the family. Another awesome thing is that she got an amazing job the week before graduation that will force her and Dad to move up closer to us! Congrats Mom!!




Here's a picture of Mom with the sugar daddy who bankrolled her education.....Dad


Brian and the kids burning off some energy in the hotel room between graduation sessions.



Here's the video of Mom getting her diploma, she insisted that they pronounce her name right....took the lady about 4 times, but finally got it right, it's Laurie, pronounced "Law-Ree"....pretty simple right? Guess not.
