Seminary Banquet, 2008
On Friday the seminary held it's annual graduation banquet. This is always a great time of fellowship, food, and fun. This year's event featured video greetings from three professors who are currently overseas, a great photo montage of the graduates (complete with sound effects) and an historic event--the first female ever to win the Thomas F. Willson Award for Academic Excellence. Congratulations Daniele!
After the ceremony and the dinner, the digital cameras come out and there is endless photography of people dressed up in their finery. I am convinced that this is the part of the banquet most participants look forward to. I KNOW this is the case with a certain missionary wife whose name rhymes with "Café Santa Clara".

The "coolest missionary car evah"
Nathan and "Date"
Nathan only stayed for part of the banquet. It was just an excuse for his mother to dress him up like a human doll. Poor kid.

You were truly missed. The video came through fine, however, and it was a very nice touch.
