Blue is my Favorite Color.


Future BYU Graduate!


The whole group... minus Dad.



Supporting each other!


 School has always been very important in our family. I remember growing up and writing my school goals down at the beginning of every new year. On my list was always to get into BYU, but I never really thought past that. On Friday Ty and I got to walk together. It was a moment I never thought I would have. I know getting a good education is important. I wanted my education, not to have that perfect job, but to be a better mother, to be a better wife, and to be a better person. I hope everything that I have learned at BYU has taught me how to become more like my Savior. I love Ty and I am so proud of all that he has accomplished too. I am so thankful my mom could be there, and that both of Ty's parents could be apart of our weekend. It was so fun to have my mom stay at the house and to watch all the grandparent's eyes light up as they played with Emree. I missed my Dad a lot, but I know that my education would never have been possible with out him. I did learn a thing or two at school... like I can't sleep through classes at BYU and get As, Science is not my strong suit, and you never want to be an over commenter in class (you know the students who forgot they aren't the teachers). I hate to admit that I am going to miss school... but I do love spending so much time with my baby!

Congrats. Congrats. Congrats. What an incredible accomplishment, Danielle. I'm proud of you.

Oh ho, your comment about sleeping and not getting A's made me smile...remember what a hard time you had staying awake in seminary if I let you sit still for longer than five minutes? I kept the whole class moving so we could try to keep you awake.
