Congraduation!!!

We did it!!! Brody and I both graduated!!
That's it for me, no more school ever (at least I'm pretty sure) but Brody will be going on for a few more years most likely, to get a master's and possibly a PhD. He's ambitious, but for me, I was just happy that I finished my undergrad. It feels so good to be done with school! I've been making a big long list of "things I'm going to do when I graduate."
I was hoping that that (school) was the reason I wasn't doing these things, so now I have to make sure I do them. (Brody's name wasn't in the program because he didn't get his
graduation packet in on time)

Here's my little list...

- Read books that I want to read, not that I have to read for school.
- Make dinner every night, or at least more often (I guess this depends on my job too)
- Organize things
- Make a few of those cute little mini scrapbooks like Annie has
- Have parties at our house
- Take Sal on a walk everyday or, again, at least more often
- Work 40 hours a week (hopefully this won't make it so I can't do these other things...)
- Find a job that I like and that pays good too (this should be fun to find...)

Our families gave us some awesome parties to celebrate. Here's some pictures of all the fun!

My family had a party for us on Saturday night with the Bundy's and Searle's.
We had a yummy dinner and played some fun games including: Signs...
Silent Football (which is pretty much the funniest game ever, if you haven't ever played, you should) Lindsey was a great "coach"!!!During the game, Emma was playing her own little game with my dad which made it hard for him to participate and also made the game even more funny! I was laughing so hard I was crying and almost pee'd my pants!We then played this game where everyone has a piece of tape on their nose and you have to be the one to get all the tapes to stick to your nose, which I did! I guess that means I have the least greasy nose...Here's everybody

--------------------
On Sunday, Brody's fam had a party for us and Con's daughter Jessica who also graduated. They had the whole dinner table and surrounding areas decorated with congratulation signs and Berg made us an awesome sign! It was a fun night!
Thanks so much to everyone for the fun parties and for all your love and support! We love you all!

Yea for you guys! What a great accomplishment and hard work and I know you'll never regret having a degree. If nothing else it gives you something to go back to if you ever do have to work full time. :)

I think it's so great that you and Brody graduated at the same time. What a cool thing. Good job on all of your hard work.

Annie said...

I love that you got through at the same time so that you could take that awesome picture! We send our best wishes and congrats!

Hip Hip Hurray! It is soooo exciting that you graduated together! I'm so proud of both of you. I know it hasn't been easy to be married, work three jobs, and go to school, but you hung in there and now you're done! Way to go. And finishing your after-school-club job tomorrow may be just as exciting as graduating?

Lee said...

Hey- you need to update your goal list about the one that says "graduate from college!"

That is so awesome Kylee and Brody. I'm very proud of you guys. I wish I could go back to school. Maybe in five years when Milly is in Kindy. I have dreams that I'm back at BYU and looking for a dorm and an apartment and then I think to myself, "Wait! How am I going to fit five kids in here!"

You have such a supportive family. I'm certain you and Brody will carry on the tradition. I love coming to Utah for family games and parties. It always makes me feel so good and loved. Congrats to you both!
