This has been such a busy, joyful 6 weeks. So much has happened so I'm going to break it down into a couple of posts. Todays post is Kyle's Graduation and Kirstin & Kyle's Temple Sealing.
Kyle graduated from ODU on May 6, 2016 with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. Yay!
Quite the accomplishment! We were all so happy for him to reach this goal and it was a beautiful day for a graduation!

The following Tuesday, May 10th Kirstin and Kyle were sealed in the Washington DC Temple.
Noah and Emil M. had a little impromptu photo shoot in the hotel while we were in the sealing. (Noah is about the same height as Emil M. now!!) Then they drove to the temple with the Raneys and Dede, Kyle's Mom was able to get them to pose some more while they waited for us to come out.

My sister Sheila, her husband Mike and my Mom all came for the sealing. They arrived Monday night and left Wednesday morning. It was so sweet of them to make the trip for one short day but such a blessing to have them here!

We were very blessed to have The Long's and the Trotman's join us for the sealing! Catherine and Emily are two of Kirstin's very best friends. Catherine was Kirstin's maid of honor and Emily was our amazing photographer! Love these two girls!

After the sealing and pictures we had lunch at Filomena's in Georgetown. It was amazing! I would highly recommend the lasagna to anyone. (I dream about it!) Then we all headed home and the newlyweds headed to The Raney's Lake house at Lake Gaston, NC. What a beautiful, special day!
