Alex the Graduate

Crazy to know that my younger sister Alex has graduated!  It seems like only yesterday this was us...........


Sometimes I really miss moments like this picture portrays.  Carefree, creative playtime together where our biggest problem was figuring out who was going to be the "big chief" and wear the hat or figuring out if the clover looking stuff we found was edible for little indians like ourselves.

It almost seemed surreal to watch Alex graduate from college with a bachelors in psychology and look so grown up and professional.  Whose knows which direction God will take her next, but I know that whatever/wherever it is He has got some great plans to use her heart for Himself.

Here is our weekend in pictures......
Vienna, catching a nap on the way to the graduation ceremony.

Reuben entertained us on the ride over.

Part of the group there to support Alex.

Enjoying Vienna and Reuben to the fullest!

Kourtney and Derek. Kourtney is one of my good friends from Quincy and probably Alex's best friend.  It was so fun to spend a little time with her while home. 

Matt looks good with a baby. ;)

Alex sporting her beautiful flowers from dad and mom.  


Lemon cake made by Ash

The girls of the family.  Love moments like this when we can all be together.

After the party.......this picture really cracks me up.  A big bunch of nappers!

Snuggling Vienna up!

Reuben + hair-clips = cuteness

While we were home we helped do some remodeling in the apartment my mom and sisters are moving into.


Before church the next day dad made Al get in her robe again for some pictures.

While he was at it I got him to snap one of Matt and me!

Alex, we are so proud of the hard work you put into school and so proud of your growth in Christ over the past few years.  We admire you! =)
