Congratulations Alyssa!

On Friday, June 11th, Alyssa graduated with Magna Cum Laude Honors from Crestview High School. She was ranked 19th in her graduating class of about 400 students and as the honor students get their diplomas first we didn't have to wait long to see her walk. We're proud of her! Graduation took place on the school's football field and we sat in the bleachers to cheer her on. Here's a couple of shots from the night. We love you Alyssa!

There she is the shortest one in line!


Count twelve over from the girl in the white dress from the goal post...that's Alyssa.


Unfortunately the walking across the stage and diploma acceptance shots were blurry...here she is diploma cover in hand.



The happy family, we're all glistening a bit...even though it's 9:30 at night!


Proud Daddy!



The real diploma...she had to pick it up after the ceremony outside.



Crestview High School's colors are Red and White. After the ceremony, I told here it was time to switch her colors...and gave her these blue paw earrings. They're not official BYU Cougar paws but watch out anyway BYU because here she comes!


Alyssa loves to wear bold and bright colors. I made her this graduation dress and belt in her signature color...bright orange!

Love her graduation dress! I wondered where she got it. Thanks for posting the pics of the wedding. I still feel a lump in my throat when I think of both of those events for my self...being dropped off at BYU and getting married. Both were good and right choices...just hard to move forward! Loved the wedding dressed too Kim!
