Adventures @ Graduation

My little sister, Miriam, just graduated from Alta High on Wednesday! It was so weird to see her completing that important phase of her life. It was even stranger were the events that happened that day. . . .

First I woke to the sound of Amber, and my mom running around the house. I had no clue what was going on so I got out of bed to see. There was a big, ugly, brown bird in our house! It kept trying to fly through all the closed windows. My cat also happened to be inside. . . . She was very interested in that bird. Luckily, I grabbed her and put her outside before she could get it. I grabbed a bucket and my mom finally got it . . . then released it outside.

After we scrambled to get ready we piled into the suburban and headed to Orem. We were late so we were running across the parking lot when my mom said, "Camille! Your shoes don't match". I looked down and sure enough they did not match. I forgot to bring down some high heels from college, so I had just grabbed a pair from my mom's closet (my sisters feet are way bigger than mine). I should have checked to see if they matched. Well it was too late so I just had to wear them.

We walked into the auditorium and saw empty seats at the very top of the bleachers. We climbed up and then sat down. Then the bleachers started swaying! I was so scared that it would fall down. By the end of the program I was ready to throw up from all the rocking it did.

Miriam's graduation wasn't as boring as mine or Clint's, but still it had its boring moments. My parents were smart and brought things to do. Hehehe (both were playing on their iphone)

There were so many graduating students that it took at least an hour and a half to announce all of their names.

Well, since I didn't have anything to do during the speeches, I decided that I would take a picture of my mismatched shoes. BAD IDEA! I put my feet up on Clint's lap to take a picture. There was an old lady sitting in front of us but was leaning forward at the time. I decided the lighting was too weird to take a picture. As I was swinging my legs around so I could put them down. . . the old lady leaned back! I ended up kicking her in the head! How embarrassing! I wanted to die.

My little Sisters. . . .

Miriam A.K.A. Mim

Age: 18

Likes: boys, her phone, clothes, music, and telling me i'm her little sister because she is taller than me.

She doesn't get mad very often, she is always up for a fun time, and loves talking/ laughing

Amanda A.k.a. Manda

Age: 15

Likes: friends, shopping, the Amazing Race, volleyball, and seeing if she is taller than me yet (she almost is)

Amanda is always there for her friends/family, she likes to joke around with the two little ones and make them laugh, she is also very mature!

Amber A.k.a. Amby, babe, bug

age:10

likes: BYU football, playing soccer, reading, BYU, being a tomboy, BYU, and hanging out with her older sisters.

Amber is just a little sweetheart! She is so passionate about BYU, she is always outside playing, and she loves cereal!

Sometimes it is hard being the older sister. . . I should be the example, but its a lot of fun too. I love having these little sisters in my life. Even though two of them are taller than me. :)

Miriam & A.J.

I followed Miriam and her boy A.J. around for an hour or so with a camera. I know that all the professionals are probably dying from my lack of skills, but I had fun.

I liked this one of A.J. Miriam was a little too posed. Hahahaha!

I loved how they were always laughing and joking with each other. I saw this cute pose from a friend and her engagements. I tried to get it to work but the sun was so bright. That is why they have squinty eyes.

I think that they turned out pretty good

Beautiful Sisters

I really wanted to get some pictures done of all the four girls. After grumbling they all got ready and we headed out. (I think they ended up having lots of fun). At first we really didn't know how to pose. . . . then once we got going we just couldn't stop!

I am not as photogenic as my sisters. . . :( sigh. . . . but I try

I loved taking pictures of Miriam, she just knew how to pose!

I don't know which one I like better. . . . color or black and white

Oh Amber. . . . what a sweetheart!

I think this one is my favorite of Amanda! So gorgeous!

Well this one tied for my favorite of her. . . but then again she had a lot of good pictures

I don't know how this happened but my camera did this. Turned out pretty cool though
