On June 5, 2009 Alex graduated from Redwood High School. We are so proud of Alex and all that he has accomplished during his time in high school. He was involved in FFA, played Water Polo and Swam all four years, as well as being on the honor roll (well most of the time). He will now be taking some classes at our local community college while preparing for his mission. If all goes as planned, he will turn in his papers the beginning of October and then report in January after the Fall school semester. We are so proud of him and the decissions he is making in his life. It was so fun to share his graduation with our family (Thanks Uncle Jon, Lance, Sierra and Teddy for coming up). As always we are so grateful for the support of my parents who are there with us to share in all the important events in our kids lives. It was also so fun to be with our "Nichols" family in the stands and cheer for our boys. We have watched Derrick and Alex go through Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Junior High, Swimming & Water Polo together and so it seemed only right that they should be walking together for their graduation. We will surely miss all the associations that have come through Alex's activities - but we know that he is on his way to even bigger and better things in his life. We love you son!!
