Chase goes to college!

I wanted to dedicate at least one post to Chase.  For those of you who don’t know Chase is Jeff’s oldest son.  He just graduated from Sky View and is headed off to Virginia Tech.  Chase came to live with Jeff about 18 months ago and I am SO glad he did.  He is so fun and has truly been a blessing in my life.  I found myself driving to work today crying randomly (and now again as I write this).  Chaser (as I call him) has become a great friend of mine and such a positive person for my girls to know.  As we speak he and Jeff are hauling across country in Chase’s car headed to school.  I asked Jeff to take photos so I can document the trip.  Here are some photos of  the highlights of the last year!

 

Thank you Chase for making everything so fun.  My favorite memories include Las Vegas on Chase’s 18th birthday!  Our trip to Price, Utah where I could have sworn we were in the twilight zone.  Spending time in Lava Hot Springs as of course our Saturday ski trips!  Love you Chase!  Have the best time ever!!

Christmas 08!  Chase and T got new jackets!

I love this photo.  Chase is in the black and grey coat. 

I loved spending every Saturday with him.  He is an excellent snowboarder.   Taylor and Mitchell felt so cool to be related to someone who could do such “wicked tricks.”

Chase, Jeff and I are our annual Lagoon day!	Bear Lake with all the kids! Chase is an awesome on the wakeboard and just landed his first flip a few weeks ago

Right before the 4th of July Jeff was in Boston on business and he brought Chase this hat back.  He then wore it for the next two days.  He wore it the entire Jonas Brothers concert.  He is so dang funny!! Right:  Snowbird.  There was a moose right behind were the kids are standing.

Chase’s graduation.  He did a back flip when he got his diploma.  It was very cool!  We had a great party after!

 

 

 

This last weekend was Chase’s last weekend living in Utah so we lived it up.  On Friday night the Huskinson’s had a party for Chaser.  It was a great time!  Chase had just got his wisdom teeth pulled and was a trooper!

Scott gave Chase this megaphone thing (I don’t even know what’s it’s called).  Oh my, that could be trouble.	On Saturday Greg and Sheree (Jeff’s brother and sister in law) drove from Idaho Falls to have lunch with Chase.  Nothing is ever serious!!  Which is great!

Then Chase headed over to my parents for one last Sunday dinner where everyone said good bye to him.  He has been such a source of fun for us!

 

Love you Chaser!  Can’t wait to come visit you in Virginia!!!
