The Big Day: Jeff's Graduation from BYU!!!!

Well we are both officially now BYU alumnus!! Jeff graduated from BYU with a BS in Financial Services on April 27th!! It was such an exciting day for us and we were able to celebrate with so many awesome family members!!! We had LOTS of Texas family here: Mom & Dad Drysdale (Ken & Jeanne), Grandpa Joe & Grandma Dean, Uncle Guy & Aunt Sharon, Joe, Amanda, & Cole, and James & Amy (who live close by), Uncle Bob & Aunt Susie (who live not too far) plus my (Nicole's) parents- Dan & Karen, and those who live here: Shar & Trav and Chelsea and cute Syanne were all able to come as well!
Thank you to everyone who helped make Jeff's graduation such a special and memorable time in our lives. It meant so much to have all of you here and we truly appreciate all the love, support, and time you have given us. We couldn't have made it without you!!!
Also, for those who don't know....Jeff was hired with the Church Education System a week before graduation! He will be teaching seminary full-time in Utah Valley. We couldn't be more thrilled and we definitely feel VERY blessed! Jeff has worked so hard during his time at BYU and has done such an amazing job juggling school, student teaching, and me and West!!! We feel so blessed to have him as a husband and father and are so proud of all of his accomplishments!!

!!!Congratulations Jeff!!!



Celebrating our exciting day!! I feel like I graduated with Jeff, too!!! Congrats Jeff!


Weston was pretty sleepy after graduation but he perked up when he saw Jeff's tassel. Too cute!

Congratulations!!! What a big relief. I'm so glad Jeff got a seminary job, but we wish it was in AZ. (: Hope you're doing well.

Hey Nicole! I love your blog, it's so cute! How's Weston's forehead? Does he have a bruise? I felt to bad when he bonked it on our furniture!
