So, the big day finally arrived and was great! Commencement was 2 hours and would have been miserable except President Monson spoke and was wonderful. I sat near the front of the McKay Events Center so it was cool to be so close to him. Pres. Eyring and Pres. Uchtdorf were also there and made it special.Convocation was immediately after commencement and lasted another 2 hours. Holy Long! I know my family and friends must really love me to sit through all that. We were all texting back and forth through the ceremonies and entertained ourselves. Don't worry, I tried to be discreet and hide my rudeness.
Classmates and me after the ceremonies. Can you see the relief on our faces? I know I could feel it!
Me and my honey! I think it's time for some rest and relaxation. Joe deserves a nice romantic weekend getaway to make up for all those nights he went to bed alone while I stayed up studying. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink!
Both my sisters, Debby and Tammy, came for the big day. Debby's boyfriend, Curtis, also flew in from Missouri. Aunt Toni, Uncle Shirl, and my in-laws, Carol and Lynn also attended with us. Wow, THANK YOU so much!
Finally, my dear friends Jae and John and also Susie and Annie attended. (Susie and Annie snuck out before pics were taken.) I love all you guys and am so grateful to have you in my life!

What an amazing day! I had heard that President Monson was at UVU - how exciting that you were able to be there. Congrats again!
I love the top picture. You are so pretty. I also like that John is standing behind you pointing at your head or something and looking so serious.
Yes we are going out for a romantic weekend!
Awesome, Wendy. I wish we could have been there. Congratulations!!
