My Little Sis Graduated!!!

In May, my little sister (Danielle) graduated with her Masters in Architecture at the University of Utah! What an accomplishment! We are so proud of you Danielle! We had such a fun day celebrating and hanging out with friends and family! Here are some pictures to prove it :)

Danielle and Brittany (they stuck by eachother every step)! BFFAEAE
Cassidy told me that BFFAEAE = BEST FRIENDS FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER!

AUNT KIKI, TATA, AND MY MOM

WHILE WE WERE PATIENTLY WAITING FOR THE GRADUATION TO START, DANI AND BRITT WERE POSING FOR ALL SORTS OF PHOTOGRAPHERS IN THE BACK OF THE ROOM. IT WAS LIKE A 30 MINUTE PHOTO SESSION OF THESE TWO HOTTIES!

AUNT KAKI AND DANIELA

LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER :)

YES. SHE WAS WEARING CLOTHES UNDER HER GOWN. EVEN AFTER ALL OF THE CRAZY DARES!

MIKE AND DANI (ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE BFF'S)!

DANIELA WITH HER PROUD HUBS...BWANDON...

AFTER THE GRADUATION, WE CAME BACK TO MY HOUSE TO ENJOY SOME CHILEAN EMPANADAS MADE BY MY MOM (AND LOTS OF OTHER FOOD!) IT WAS SUCH A FUN CELEBRATION! WE PLAYED MUSIC, SANG, ATE, LAUGHED, CHATTED, AND ATE AGAIN.

YOU CAN'T TELL BY THIS PICTURE, BUT I REALLY WAS PRESSURED INTO PLAYING SOME OF MY FAVORITE BANJO SONGS...BRITTANY'S WHOLE FAMILY WAS CLAPPING THERE HANDS SAYING..."BANJO, BANJO, BANJO, BANJO" AND I COULDN'T HANDLE THE CONSTANT NOISE :)

HERE ARE SOME BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS SENT FROM MIKE AND EM FROM OREGON!

CASS AND MOM EVEN SANG A FEW TUNES...

WE HAD SO MANY PEOPLE OVER THAT DAY! HERE ARE A FEW OF OUR VISITORS...



HI EVERYBODY...MY NAME IS DANIELA AND I JUST WANT TO SAY...I'M DONE!!!

Wow, she is amazing! The last time I saw her she was just a little girl singing love songs at your reception. She's gorgeous!

To book your blog just go here:

http://www.blurb.com/create/book/blogbook

and it will give you the run-down of how it works. It will have you download the Booksmart software. The only thing your should know is that when booksmart slurps your blog into a book, every post will publish to a template that has six 1x1 pictures on the outside margin with the text on the inside margin. The 1x1 pictures were too small for my liking, so I ended up changing the layout of every page...which can take some time, especially at first. But, once I had done about 20 pages I pretty much knew how much text would fit on certain layouts and which layouts were my favorites and then it went a lot faster.

I really like the end result, and although it did take some time to make every layout the way I wanted it, the nice thing was that I could walk away and not work on it for a month and there was no scrapbook mess to stress me out or clean up. I could just come back to my computer when I was ready and pick up right where I left off. And I love that I can print more than one copy...so I'm not making a scrapbook for each of my kids. I'm just making one book one time and then printing enough copies for everyone.

Good luck! Let me know if you need any help!
