3 Days To Spokane

Right after graduation we took off for Spokane. My dad and mom helped us drive the van and moving truck which was a huge help. It took us 3 days to get there. The first night we made it to Mesquite, NV. And of course since we were going through Provo we had to stop at BYU. Here we are with the "Y" in the background.

The second night we stayed in Rexburg, ID and visited with my brother John who is going to school there at BYU-Idaho. We got up bright and early Sunday morning to go to his singles ward with him. We provided quite the entertainment since our boys were the only kids in the whole room. Hope we didn't embarrass you too much John. Here we are standing in front of the new Rexburg Temple. It should open up sometime this summer.
This is a picture of one of Campbell's many sleeping positions in the van. I don't know how he does it.
They have quite the set up back there.
We made it into Spokane Sunday evening and started unpacking Monday morning. Spokane was having a bit of a heat wave with temperatures up over 90. That made moving a little uncomfortable and our new house didn't have any fans or A/C. It was a long day but we finally got everything in thanks to Dad, Mom, and Ben.
Right now we are in Denver, CO on our way to Andersen's family reunion in New Mexico. We left Wednesday so we had no time to unpack. We're excited to get back and put everything together in the house.

Graduation Day

Andersen's graduation was June 1st. We now refer to him as Dr. Grigg. I know, it still sounds weird to me. Here we are outside our hotel before graduation. My parents stayed at the hotel with the boys so that we wouldn't have to worry about them breaking out into "Tackle Time" in the middle of the ceremonies.

When it rains it pours. Here we are ready for graduation in the moving truck. I think we're all a little grumpy.
I know you can't see these next two pictures very clearly but this one is a picture of Andersen being hooded.
And this is him receiving his diploma. Since it was just me there I had to yell extra loud. I think I startled the people next to me.

Andersen's Awards Banquet

Here are the pictures from Andersen's Graduation Awards Banquet Thursday, May 31st. It was at the Scottsdale Resort in Scottsdale. Quite the crazy day! It was Porter's last day of school, we were in a hotel, and I picked up my parents from the airport. After packing up our house the day before we were a little exhausted by the time we got to the banquet.

Andersen, Wayne, and Leatha waiting for the dinner to start. Nice dress Mom!
Here are some people at our table, Kerri & Trent Shelton, Jason & Maggie Caywood, and AnnMarie & Andersen
Of course we can't forget Shyler and Britt DeMill. So cute!
Here we are with Shyler and Britt after the awards had all been handed out. What a night!
