Graduation!!!!

So the next day, after Nolan got home from his mission, we all got to celebrate the graduates in our family! My dad and his two brothers each had a child graduating from BYU this year. My two cousins, Janelle, Landon, and I all got to walk and graduate together! Landon and I finished classes in December and decided that we would walk in April so that we could all be together! Since there were three of us a lot of family came to town to join the celebrations that we had last week.

As Rick, Kimbri and I walked up to the Marriott center we stopped to take some pictures just Southwest of the Maeser building on campus. I had noticed on a run not too long ago that the flowers were all in bloom and it was so pretty. Ever since I had wanted to take some pictures there with Kimbri. So we stopped and got some really cute pictures with Kimbri :)

Kimbri and her adorable smile! I can say that because I'm her mommy :) And I loved how this picture turned out with all the colorful tulips in the background!!

We stopped again the next day on our walk up to the Marriott Center for Convocations. I love this time of year when all the flowers are out and the world is turning green and beautiful.

After Convocations on April 20, 2012, we all went outside on the Marriott Center lawn and took pictures. It was such a fun day. Here are some pictures that were taken with my camera, but once again, I'm missing a ton of other pictures that other people took on their cameras that I still want to get. Like the picture of me with all my immediate family and with just Rick, Kimbri and I, etc.... So I'll just have to update that later.

The extremely beautiful and incredibly good smelling roses
I got for graduation. Thanks Rick! I love you!!

It was such a good feeling to graduate but I could NOT have done it without so much support and help from all my family. Thanks to Janelle I was able to go to my biology class while she tended Kimbri out in the hall ;) And thanks to my amazing mother-in-law, Sundee, for coming to watch Kimbri on Thursdays when Rick and my school schedule overlapped. And a huge thank you to my parents, Lyle and Tammy Haycock, for supporting me with all of my goals and dreams. Thanks to the both of you I was able to go to Spain for a semester and really fall in love with the language, the culture and the people and because of that amazing experience I learned what I wanted my major to be. So thank you for helping me to have such a wonderful opportunity like that!

Also, having a baby last July when I was doing summer classes and still had fall semester to go was hard but I am sooooooo extremely grateful for all of the family that helped me and supported me, and especially for the love of my life, Rick. I am the luckiest!
