Graduated!

the moment that i thought would never come finally came...I GRADUATED! yea yaaaa! it was so crazy exciting. graduation day was awesome. it was in omaha. my family and rich's parents were able to come. rich's parents came and spent some time with us before graduation, and that was a great time too (i'll post about that in the future). my graduation from creighton was a lot more exciting than my graduation from byu because this time i get to be a nurse! i'm so grateful that i was able to graduate with my rn-bsn before rich started school. i love nursing and know that this is where i am supposed to be. i will miss everyone that i went to school with so much. i met a lot of amazing people from around the country and learned so much from them. i don't mean to sound all sappy but i also need to say that i am so grateful for the sacrifices that rich made to help me out this last year. i could not have done it without him (fact). he is always so positive, smart and helpful (and handsome). i love everything about him. i am also grateful for the support of my family, family-in-laws, friends, professors and classmates. i have learned so much this last year, and could not be more grateful for graduating. thanks to everyone who helped me. i love you!

the LOVE of my life
