It just so happened that the U of U and Dixie scheduled their graduation ceremonies back to back. We had quite the adventure trying to get to both for Malinda and Adrianne!
First up was Malinda's graduation. Originally her graduation was on the same day as Adrianne's, but she was able to work it out with her dean to walk the day before with the science department.
After graduation, it was time to hit the road to St. George. The girls car was the best!
Adrianne's graduation ceremony was first thing in the morning which was a very good thing. It was already in the 90s and the graduation was outdoors. Good thing there was a playground close by so papa took Evy and Nate there to keep happy.
We did a little exploring in St. George. Malinda showed us Glitter Mountain. The kids LOVED it and still talk about going there.
We also rented a Razor to ride on the sand dunes. Papa is a crazy driver, but Evy loved it. She was whooping and wanted to keep going on rides. And of course the sand and water was a big hit for both Nate and Evy.
After we got back to Highland, we had one more stop to make. We went to see my grandpa. I love seeing my kids with him.
On our way back to Utah I found out something surprising. My mom had never stopped at Little America. So of course that became our lunch stop. It's perfect since the kids could get out their energy on the playground!
We did 26 hours driving in less than a week, but it was worth it to see both Adrianne and Malinda graduate. Congratulations to both of you!
