Introducting Dr. Tyler Johansen, DMD

Tyler worked hard for this day to finally arrived!  May 20, 2012.  We are so proud of Tyler and all it took him to get here.  I'm grateful to be married to a man who wants to work so hard at becoming a professional who contributes a great service to society in order to care for his family.  I'm so glad that matters to him.

Sweet Luke did a great job!  Poor Caleb didn't get to come; he stayed home with Mandy and napped! 

Here's the magical moment!!

So happy!

With some of Tyler's friends.  We missed pics with a lot of people, but I'm glad we got these!

My goodbye with my great friend Kimi.  I'm sure missing living near her already and am super sad that there's very little hope of us ever living so close together again!  I started crying and just had to make myself stop thinking about it or else I wasn't going to get out of there in one piece!

The six graduates in our ward

The six of us couples in the 5th ward.

One last girls pic.  These are the girls who, besides my own mother, have taught me how to be a mother - through example and so so so much conversation.  We talked babies til the cows came home!  They each have great mothering qualities that I try to imitate.  I think about what they've taught me more than they know!  I wish I could have gotten one with all of the wives we spent time with, but there were just too many to coordinate it.

We felt bad for not inviting Caleb, but I think he had more fun at home with Mandy!  Tyler was so happy to come home to him even though sweet Caleb didn't even get it.

We are lucky to have such a great little life.  And man, I miss our house.

Hooray for Dr. Johansen!!!
