GradYation

Dallas graduated from BYU's Law School on April 20th.  We are so proud of him.  I'm also proud of his mad jumping skills and my dad's photography skills, working together to put the Y right between his outstretched arms.  Props, yo.
This graduation wouldn't have been the same without Bennett.  With nearly every name that was announced he'd say, "That's not Dallas" and then proceeded to tell us who it looked like.  One guy was Sir Topham Hat, another Hayden's Dad and a girl got the honor of being "Thomas S. Monson if Thomas S. Monson was a girl."  All of this was said loudly enough for those around us to hear.  And since they could hear him, they could probably also hear us laughing.  Ah, what a somber, serious event. 
Here's the big moment. He's hooded, it's a done deal!





I love this!  These kids love their Uncle Dallas so much. Bennett struck this pose totally unprompted.  Awesome!

And finally, we wanted to make Dallas a lei so that he didn't feel left out.  We knew there would be several around and we didn't want anyone to think that no one loved him.  However, you can see that in terms of standing next to this guy, my efforts equal epic fail.

Oh man, Bennett's comments are the best! Congrats to your family. Gradyations are always a cool moment in life (albeit long and slow).
