Whitney's Seminary Graduation June 2011

Whitney was so blessed to have Sister B - Linda Bennion - as her Seminary teacher for all 4 years. Whitney adored Sister B. I could go on & on about her. She was/is an amazing gift to our family. Sister Bennion loved the students & they loved her too. She helped instill in them a love for the scriptures & a love of learning the gospel of Jesus Christ. I don't think any of us ever forget our seminary teachers. They really are a blessing from a loving Heavenly Father. How grateful I am, as a mother, for the seminary program! Sister Bennion is now in the MTC learning a new language, preparing to go the West Indies. They are going to love the Bennions & we really miss the Bennions!

Took some time after graduation for a few family photos. Trying to get these 2 kids even though they are grown up to stand side by side without poking, touching, tickling, etc. is a challenge (fun one). Preston just might have been an instigator too...yeah I think so...no surprises there.


Poppa looks really short but they were standing on the sloped driveway, Poppa at the low end. Whitney was wearing 4" heels too. She's tall, just not as tall as she looks in these pictures.


I'm so grateful that families can be together forever!!!


And here's Whit & her little babysitting buddy, Colin. Colin & his mom, Suzi came to support Whit at Seminary Graduation. thanks, Suzi. The boys, Colin & his brother, Parker, sure miss Whitney. I know Whitney misses them too. She would babysit them once a week & more than that as it got closer to her departure from Wenatchee. Now I need to add a photo of both the boys for journaling purposes. They are both so adorable & growing like weeds. Thanks Suzi for sharing your boys with our family.
