Jordan graduates from BYU

On a very blustery Thursday (April 21st) we flew up from Arizona to Utah to attend our son Jordan Gregory Hatch's graduation from BYU. One of the windiest landings I have ever had to make. Florence said it was like one of the landings from "Flying Alaska" on cable.

After hearing Elder Scott speak at the commencement, we ran into him and his party at Bajio's Mexican food restaurant.

Ian said Jordan could not have done it without him

We went out for lunch to celebrate---J Dogs. Boy, were they good.

There's no way it was windier than landing in El Paso OR Chandler that trip 2 years ago...

Congratulations to Jordan! I wish we could have been there to cheer him on! What is the white thing around his neck for? I don't see anyone else with one on.
