| Receiving her diploma |
Austin's sister, Emily, graduated! We are so proud of her for all she was able to accomplish while in school at the University of Utah. She did a double major and was very active in her sorority among other things. She is now preparing to apply to law schools this next year.

At commencement, President Eyring received an honorary doctorate, and I brushed against his sleeve as I walked in the basketball arena to take my seat. At first, I just thought to myself, "This guy looks really familiar!" and then when I went and sat down I realized, "Oh, that was President Eyring!" The formal processional was canceled due to rain. The speaker was the new Secretary of the VA, and he gave a good speech.

It was a rainy weekend in Salt Lake! It rained for both Commencement and Convocation ceremonies, canceling the processionals and making it hard to take pictures outside. We took a few before we rushed inside to take more.

We rented a charming house very close to the U which served as a great home base for going to graduation ceremonies and going out to dinner. Landon enjoyed playing with some of the owner's son's toys, and we worked hard to make sure he didn't play with some of the more breakable items, although he still talks about wanting the double decker bus at Rob's house. All too soon, Austin, Landon and I took off for Chicago because we thought we were leaving for China the next day. I'm relieved that we did not leave because it was going to be a crazy few days but we're ready to leave now just waiting for the word!
