Toesies & Graduation

Today, James & I woke up bright and early to go support Phil as he was graduationg from Weber State. We sent the boys over to the Nelson household for the night, because we thought they would have more fun over there than sitting around for hours. I really liked the graduation ceremony, it didn't seem long & drawn out (Michelle's felt like forever). We had a special treat, President Monson was receiving a honary degree and was the commencement speaker (Pres. Faust & Pres. Uchtdorf tagged along as well). I really liked his speech-it was aimed at the graduates, and not some political agenda. After graduation, we headed over to the Olive Garden for yummy food-Soup, Salad, & Breadsticks!

Here are some pictures:

James & Madison-Madison was great during everything; barely heard a peep out of her. My nephrew Avery-was a happy boy; when his Dad was getting his diploma, he kept shouting, "Phil".

Here's the Toesies part of the blog; Madison has discovered her toes & loves playing with them. When she's in a happy mood, I can take off her socks & pants and she can be entertained for awhile. Madi is also starting to giggle/laugh-just a little bit & I love it.
