::AIM'S GRADUATION::

A couple of weeks ago I made the trip up to Rexburg so that I could be there for Aimee's graduation. It was a fun weekend of visiting family, hemming pants (thanks Aunt Sus!), visiting family and playing hard!

Doesn't she look happy?


Hugs all around! :) We all had cameras in hand and lots of hugs!


And more hugs...



We couldn't quite figure out why it's empty!



But after it all...she's still happy!

We had to run up to sign and take the famous picture. Here's us with Grandma & Grandpa Christensen and Aunt Susan...

And we can't forget Jenni...we she was there for it all too!



Here's the graduating class all together. They were also up the side of the seats where we were sitting so we never found Aimee because she was above us and to our right. It was sad!

It was actually at this meeting where Elder Ballard spoke about blogging. He talked about how powerful it can be for such a positive influence on the world. So many people have blogs and it's an opportunity to make a difference. I was so proud to have a blog...(even if I don't use it as often as I should).

Aimee has now moved to Utah because she less than two weeks after graduation she signed a teaching contract up in Kearns (near South Jordan) and is really excited to be teaching 2nd grade!

Loved loved loved the pictures of graduation. Made me feel almost like being there. I know it was a sacrifice to go but I am REALLY happy that you were there. Looks like there were a lot of graduates that day. Glad that Aimee had her own cheering section. Thanks for the pics!!

Sorry that I couldn't make it down, so thrilled for you and Aimee to spend time together. Thanks for supporting her and being the family representative since our family is so spread out all over! Love you.

Ash thanks for blogging the pictures and commenting for the rest of the family to experience graduation. I haven't even said one thing on my blog about graduating...maybe I should change that! Thanks again.
