My baby (well, younger) brother graduated from college yesterday. We attended his graduation and of course my camera was there to capture the action. This was definitely the most exciting moment of the day:
{You can just see how the weight lifted off his shoulders has affected him!}
{Here’s M. and his lovely wife D. If you are wondering about the hard-hat, well that was the grand prize for graduates in construction management. She might need it to protect her head if flying, pointy-edged caps happen to rain down.}
These two are moving back east in a couple of weeks. We are surely going to miss having them within an hour distance . . . they are the type of people you just never get enough of. We stayed at their house yesterday for a few hours- Uncle M. built a fort-tunnel out of couch cushions for the girls (and their dog Merlin) to sneak through.
There was much laughter and squealing on the part of baby M. any time Merlin the dog would come running ready to lavish on his friendly dog-kisses. This was M’s first real hands-on (whisker pulling out) encounter with a dog. He was enamored!
Wow, it’s so wild to see Mike finally graduate. I like the mid-air pic, very funny. You can tell your kids adore him as well. It will be so weird to have M & D across the country, but I guess I don’t see you N. Utahns as often as I’d like anyway. BTW, I love your new blog title pic, the one pic with the snow animal reminds me of the film “The Golden Compass”.
