Here's to the future!

Kevin graduated from BYU-I with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Finance. When we got married it seemed like it was years' down the road before we would both be graduated but now the day has finally come!! I am SO PROUD of Kevin and all of his accomplishments. He has worked super hard and overcame many obstacles to get this degree. He has gotten really good grades and put forth the extra effort to be successful and learn! He has accepted a position with College Pro for his internship and although it's going to be a lot of work, he's excited for the challenge. He will be running his own business and a crew that does exterior home painting. This will be a fantastic growing and learning and experience for him and the best part is that we get to stay in  Idaho Falls!

there he is, the GRADUATE!

I am so grateful for his desire to go where the Lord needed him to go at the right time in his life. There were times where he wasn't even taking classes because he needed to work instead, but he kept at it and never gave up.

This semester he was also able to play intermural football at BYU-Idaho as a defensive back/tight end. His team was undefeated and won the championship game! My worst fear was that he would get hurt but he was lucky and bounced back quickly from a few hard hits he took. Due to my work schedule I wasn't able to attend all of his games, but my parents and his were there for him and each week and I'm thankful for their support.

We are thankful for the support we have received in our endeavors to get an education and better our lives. We are also thankful for everyone that took the time to come to graduation and support Kevin. Here's to the future!
