Senior Things

The first day of school, there is a tradition for Seniors to gather early to watch the sunrise (they gather at the end of the year to watch the sunset 🥹), and Ali went (Logan slept!). 


You can sign up (ahem, donate) to have the school display these signs in your Senior's yard. We had them up for three days, and I thought it was descriptive of their busy schedules that we almost didn't get a picture because the two of them are never home at the same time!
Ali and Logan (and Jason and I) spent tons of time on the essays for their BYU applications. My favorite part of the process, by FAR, was the hour or so we spent with each of them discussing what their essays could be about. It was unexpectedly tender to think back on the last four years and think about all the things they have accomplished and the ways they have grown.

We were all thrilled when they finally pushed the submit buttons!

They both submitted over the weekend, and within hours of the workday beginning on Monday, they were both informed that they had been accepted into BYU-I. Ali also applied to and was accepted into Utah State. We will find out about BYU Provo in February, but this is sure getting real.
