Graduation was such a blast. Some members of both sides were able to come and celebrate! We had such a blast. One funny story, Elder Ballard was the guest speaker at graduation. We went to a special banquet where he also spoke. Afterwards, we got split up from each other so my two sisters , mom & I were standing in a corner waiting to meet up with the rest of the crew, when my sister leaned over & knocked someone with her bag behind her. I looked up & to my surprize it was Elder Ballard!! I didn't know what to say so I just smiled & said, "Oh, hello." He returned with "Hello, How you ladies today?" I said, "Just fine, thank you." As he walked away my mom asked, " who was that you were talking too?" I replied as I burst out laughing, "Elder Ballard." So yes, we got to have a face to face chat with Elder Ballard.
