Our families were in town from Michigan for our official graduation from BYU. I didn't think I'd care all that much about walking, but it was wonderful to have a formal "goodbye" from the university that I came to love so much. Cliche and cheesy be darned, it completely changed my life!
My parents are like "yeah we are smiling lol"
Nash only poses for birthday pictures with his best girlfriend mom of course!
THEN! Christian and I took off to St. George for 3 days as a sort of anniversary trip/celebration of graduating and surviving the first year of parenthood, etc. etc.
It.
Was.
THE BEST.
To the point of being completely delirious with happiness the whole time, obviously.
We've been terrible about having consistent dates WITHOUT Nash. It's happened maybe 6 or 7 times in the last year. Getting 3 whole days with just Christian made me realize how important it is to take time for the two of us. You'd think it would be a obvious, but it's really hard for us to find babysitters since we don't have much close family here in Utah, so we usually just end up going out to dinner and bringing our little crazy octopus along. NO MORE! I have a new found obsession with "Brooke and Christian time" and my goal for the rest of the year is a date just the two of us at least 3 times a month.
Now, who wants to babysit?

I'll babysit for you! Mr. O would love to share his toys with Nash. Only prob is I live in Provo. But I'd love to.
LOVE UPDATES! And this post must be divinely inspired because I've been thinking this week how I should offer to babysit. Because one, NASH!! And second, I'm sure you and Christian would love to have some extra twosome time. But really, I would. And I love your updates so much. All your pictures are so fantastic. Colorful and happy and fun.
Congratulations on graduating!!! I wanted to avoid walking because I was worried about getting too emotional. You made it, you graduated, and you have a cute baby and husband to boot! :)
