I know this happened before the last post, but it needed to be posted. On December 12, 2009, Luke officially graduated with his degree in Chemical Engineering. It is a huge relief to finally be done! It was a crazy weekend - both of my parents came up from Rigby, and Luke's mom, stepdad and Grandad came up from Declo. Grandad, Bonnie (Luke's mom) and Luke now make up three consecutive generations that have graduated from the University of Idaho. GO VANDALS!
Both Jenna and Miriam were troopers for the whole thing, and as soon as the graduation ceremony was over, we went down to find Luke in the large crowd. No sooner had we found him, snapped a few photos and started to head over to the treats that Miriam threw up all over my wool coat! She had thrown up earlier that morning, but we thought that the crazy schedule had made her overly anxious. Maybe she was still anxious with all the people around her - but whatever it was, I got covered in processed applesauce and milk! We got her home and bathed, and promptly into bed. She woke up from her nap as happy as ever and completely un-phased by the entire ordeal - unlike the coat that went directly to the cleaners.

ReplyDeleteSorry about the throw up.
I'm all too familiar with throw up.
