Happy Graduation!

We had the awesome chance to go up to Rexburg for the weekend last weekend to celebrate Paul and his graduation! It was great fun!!  Mike's parents flew into town Thursday evening, and the kids had so much fun picking them up at the airport, having dinner together and spending good Grandparent time. Mike and I enjoyed all the good conversation, a little game-age, and the fun.  We LOVED having them here--and I scheduled a Texas trip for next year. Can't wait!

We headed up to Rexburg Friday morning, after watching Paul present a literary paper at Weber State. It was deep (at one point, Dad and I had to wiki the definition of a word!).  The car ride was lovely with sleeping children and adult conversation, and we arrived at Rexburg with enough time to get Paul where he needed to be (whew!).  Mike and I were staying the weekend at Brielle's house, so after checking in there (SO CUTE!), we headed to dinner and graduation. 

It was great.  President Clark, the BYUI president, is an awesome man, and thankfully they kept everything brief (ish.).  We had fun watching Paul 'walk' and enjoyed a yummy pizza dinner (complete with a pizza called the 'Mindy special!')

Saturday we woke up to find that the Easter bunny found us at Aunt Brielles! The kids loved their treats and fun, and we had sufficient candy for the ride home to keep us awake!  Thanks for letting us stay at your house, Brielle, and thanks for graduation, Paul, so we could have a great weekend trip!
