Matt's college graduation

5/4/12 was also the day my younger brother Matt graduated from college!  We were supporting Noah at his much anticipated kindergarten program during the commencement addresses (which I heard were really interesting...the presient of Disne-Pixar who graduated from the U of U spoke).  We got there just before the convocations began though and were glad to be able to cheer for Matt as he accepted his diploma!

Here are Ezra and Noah trying to be quiet little boys...

Katie handed out these candy leis to give Matt afterward when we congratulated him.

 Then it was back to my parents house for a barbeque to celebrate.  Here is my mom giving Max a squeeze:

Way to go, Matt!  Woot woot!  Degree in atmospheric sciences.

It wouldn't really be a party with my side of the family without a game of cards.
