Devlin Got His Masters!!

I debated on naming this post, "We're DONE with school!" But I guess, you can never be too sure! Devlin graduated with his Masters in Computer Science from BYU this last week (okay, so he walked...and will "officially" graduate in December-but he's ALL DONE)! When he went to pick up his cap and gown, they forgot to give him his cap. He went back to get it and a kind gentleman gave him 6 free tickets to BYU Day's catered dinner ($20 a plate). It included a live band and dancing. Thanks to this kind fellow, we were able to party the night away before Devlin walked in the morning. If that wasn't cool enough, they gave us all free t-shirts at the end of the night (you'll see us wearing them in the video).

The next day, Devlin walked, and then it was back to work. I'll save the gory details of getting his thesis turned in for those of you who ask. It would make this post 3xs as long! Enjoy the video...it's a must see if you're a fan of my kids' dance moves! Thanks so much to Angela, Marcus, Thomas, and my Mom and Dad for coming to support on such short notice!

Deep Thoughts by William Daley

William: Mom, how come the daddy's just leave and the mommy's have to do all the work?

Me: Why do you ask that? (trying not to laugh)

William: I'm looking in all the cars, and they're all mommy's!

Me: William, where's Daddy?

William: At work. But Daddy only works on his thesis and you do everything else.

Me: No, William, Daddy does lots of jobs. He works on his thesis and works at Instructure. We're on the same team William. I get to take care of you kids, make the meals, clean your clothes, and most of the time, I get to play with you. Daddy does a lot of things too. And because of him we have a nice place to live, clothes for mommy to clean and food that Mommy get's to cook.

William: Oh.
