She has been well prepared

Friday, June 6th, 2014 - Belana graduates from Timberline High.

What a great day it was, and proud is only an understatement in describing our emotion, as we watched the ceremony from the bleacher seats of Marcus Pavilion on the campus of Saint Martins University.

A moment of reflection, for sure

Friends.  "We will have these moments to remember." 

They came, formal and casual, for a good time.

Sunday, June 8th, 2014 - Belana graduates from LDS Seminary.

Another graduation day in the life of our beautiful grand-daughter, and perhaps one that is even more meaningful.  It took place in the chapel of this church.  The spire, showing the reflection of the afternoon sun, seems to give divine sanction to the proceedings inside the sacred building.  

No cap and gown, but a big smile

A rose for the graduate

Good friends

Two graduations in three days is enough to wear anyone out

On Monday we left for a two-day stay at a beach in Oregon.  We departed knowing our grand-daughter will make good and correct life decisions.  After all, she has been well prepared by not only public education, but also through religious training.
