Convocation Ceremony for the Business and Communications Departments held in the Hart Building Auditorium

  

 Brittney and our good friend Brother Barrus, who used to live in Kentucky but now teaches at BYU-I.

 Brittney got to sit on stage with the other honor students but she said the lights were very bright and hot!

 Brittney's biggest support group - her cousins Blakely and Alyssa!

 More wonderful family - Blake, Emily, Jack, and Josie.

 All the Business and Communication graduates.

Brittney's graduating class was privileged to have both Brother Durrant and Gilbert speak at their Convocation. 

 

 And Brittney was privileged to sing in the graduate's honor choir (Brother Barrus was the accompanist)!

 Here she is singing on the big screen!

 Much to her surprise (and mine) Brittney was the first one to receive her diploma!

 (My pictures are a little fuzzy because all I had was my phone, and I was sitting on the opposite side)

 Brittney was all smiles!

 More Brittney fans!

 And proud Grandparents!

 

Brittney's official Communication's pin. We are so proud of Brittney and all of her hard work, even with being sick a lot of the time! She not only graduated with honors, but paid her own way through school graduating without any debt, and will start a new job in her field, right after she graduates. Yes, these are words of a very proud Mother and Brittney's biggest fan!!!
