Weekend Extravaganza Part 1: Graduation





We had QUITE the week, as I am sure many others had as well.  To start off, I finished my undergrad with a degree in Anthropology.  Hooray!  I walked on Friday and it was wonderful to have my family there.  Bryan had two majors (math and econ) and he totally could have walked with me, but he decided that math sounded less feminine than Family, Home, and Social Sciences (both anthropology and econ are considered social sciences).  Ha.  As a result, my family had to divide and conquer.  But, luckily for me, my awesome cousin Jessica and her hubby, Brigham, were both walking at the same time with degrees in Psychology.  It was great!  To be honest, I thought I would be totally bored at graduation, but the ceremony gave me an unexpected feeling of belonging and closure.  It was nice.   

JT is the greatest


Love Bry's face.....classic
Cousins talking
Anthony's sweet sunnies.

Awesome Uncle Jim

Mike, Mike, Mike!

This is my last living grandparent.  He is the greatest.  One of my favorite moments was when a Psych professor recognized my grandpa and was raving about how my grandpa was instrumental in the direction that the Psych department is today.  He said that his research was monumental and then started chanting his name, "Ken Hardy!  Ken Hardy!"  It was awesome.        


My sweet friend Rachel came over to say congrats.  She is the best and her baby is ADORABLE. 


Pretty momma

  2. CONGRATULATIONS SARA!!! You're made it! ;-) I'm so glad you had a great graduation with your family and friends. I just want to say though...I'm so bummed that I didn't say goodbye before we left on our trip, I totally spaced that you two would be gone when we got back. So...Have an AMAZING time back east!!!! Can't wait to see you when you get back in the fall :-)
