Last Day Of Classes

Today is Ross' last day of classes in his undergraduate career. I am so excited for him! A couple of his classes are having a potluck. I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate! I am so proud of how hard he has worked these last few years. Since marrying me, he has taken on a job, always a large class load, two kiddos with diaper needs and mouths to feed, and all sort of challenges along the way. Earlier in the year, he had (I think 16 credits) was working 20 hours a week, and an internship which took up at least 20 hours of his week. Over the summer, he worked full time, and still had the internship, which was unpaid.

I know I couldn't have handled everything half as well as he has, and I am so proud of him and all that he has accomplished. He's done so well, he doesn't even have to take the final for a couple of his classes. Thank you, BYU, and Provo for a wonderful experience!

We were so grateful when he got the job offer from Epic, even before graduation. BYU has been such a blessing. I know many families are struggling to find jobs after graduating, and we feel so blessed to have this opportunity. I never thought I'd be sad to leave Provo, Utah, but shockingly, I am. I haven't finished my education, and I've come to realize what a blessing just the opportunity to get a higher education is. I'm so grateful Ross has had this opportunity to go to school and have a family. I couldn't be more proud of that man. I sure love you, Ross. Even when we play games together and I lose.

We are looking forward to a long wonderful Christmas vacation playing with our families and for the next chapter in our lives!
