His graduation was in the Provo Tabernacle, which was nice since it is a smaller group than most other colleges. The only downside was the fact that there were a lot of us in there and it got hot! Plus it was a little windy outside so most people were dressed for cool weather. I felt bad for all the grads since they had black gowns on!
They had a few speakers and one of the guests was Elder Oaks. We were on the front row of the upper side, but figured out we were on the wrong side and just saw the backs of the grads as they walked across the podium. Zach was so great the whole time which was nice! He was passed between all of us- Jennifer, Caitlin, Me, Mom, Roma, and Wayne.
I did a lot of posts today with some videos and pictures of our fun week :)

Here he is walking to get his diploma- Elder Oaks is in the burgundy robe








Dean Gordon and John. This is one of John's favorite professors and also the Interim Dean this last school year.

One funny story I forgot to write- When we were in Sacrament Meeting in Idaho, there was a speaker who was sharing a quote in the first few minutes of his talk. The end of the quote was 'amen' so Zach, who was reading a book and not paying attention at all (or so we thought) yelled 'AMEN!' and did the sign for 'all done' which is both hands in the air and twisting your wrists back and forth (so it looked like he was celebrating!) We all had to try hard to be reverent after that one!
