Good and Graduated


So it turns out there is life after full-time school for 8 straight semesters.  And what a glorious life it is!




 Celebrating with the hubster is the first thing this grad did.  Michael has informed me that he's already put his two weeks in and fully intends on being a stay-at-home kind of fellow now that he has a suga mama.  Nice try sucka!


 Smiling because I'm done stuffing my large head into those impractical hats.

 A trip to Idaho to reunite with some dear old pals was certainly in order.  Three years after High School and we're still kinda loud, but maybe slightly more grown up?

After graduation you can even take the time to pose for a few portraits...
 And stare into your lover's eyes..

and even practice your Dancing with the Stars moves..
 There's always going to be another mountain.  Mine just happend to be literal. 

I gotta tell you that this guy is more than just a pretty face.  He is the rock that holds my sanity together. And I will love him forever for it.  He does have a really nice face though ;)
 

 What graduate doesn't need a little party time?  Grandma Crandall turned 90! She is such a beautiful example to me of endurance, love, intelligence, and womanhood.  So glad we made the trip to St. George to celebrate a wonderful life.  I also got to spend a whole weekend snuggling my niece and nephew. 

This grad decided that long hair is entirely overrated.  And expensive.  And sheds everywhere like a kitty.  So away it went.  Liberation!!!!


The last thing that this grad has been up to is the whole job thingy.  I'm pleased to announce that I have accepted a position as a Respiratory Therapist at a hospital just minutes from our house.  It's a smaller facility so I will be able to work the floors, ICU, and Emergency Room.  I feel VERY INCREDIBLY INDESCRIBABLY blessed.   So very many people helped me reach this point, and I could never thank them enough.  It may take a village to raise a child, but it took multiple large cities to get me through school.  I received a fantastic education and am now eager to begin a career that I love.
