Graduation

Graduation finally arrived! Grandma Sandie came out and Grandma Sari & Papa Andre were also able to come. (Notice that Alex didn't come with us?-He had clearly had enough of anything related to school)

Youth conference

Another successful youth conference! This year we took 116 to Ellis Island and learned a bit more about geneology. It was awesome! Anytime any of you want to come out here to NJ to visit, we will take a trip there. It is really facsinating. The ferry also goes to the Statue of Liberty.
