Ben did it. He officially graduated from BYU today. It also happened to be my birthday. So my parents took the whole family out for lunch. We had to take a picture of the three pregnant sisters together.

The convocation was in the Marriott Center and J. W. Marriott Jr. was the speaker. He said that anyone who wants to be successful can be by "setting high goals, having perseverance, and working with unyielding determination." The Marriott Center was recently renovated and the portion of the floor that bears the Marriott name was bequeathed to the Marriott School of Management. All of the graduates got to sign it and it now hangs in the Tanner building on campus. We are so excited that in the years to come as we take our children on tours of the campus and indoctrinate them with everything BYU, we can take them to see the sign that bears Daddy's signature: just above the two R's.

Ben's parents were able to come down from Idaho and my family came to support. It was cold and rainy outside, but the day was so exciting. I am so proud of my sweet husband and all of the hard work that he put in to earn this degree.
