Accomplishments!!!!

Well, it's been quite a while since I last posted, and there have been many accomplishments in our house!!! Here we go...

MCLAIN...

He GRADUATED!!!!!!! (I am so proud of him!) He is now the proud owner of a Computer Science degree from Utah State University!!! Yea McLain! This is when he got home from his very last day of school...look how happy (and cute) he is!


SHERI...


I don't actually remember what I was going to put as my accomplishment.... so.... uh.... well.... I, with MUCH help from McLain, have gotten most of the house organized. That's pretty good.


BENJAMIN...


Ben has a few accomplishments.

We went to Black and White Days this year. They had some of those sweet big blow up toys. Ben kept saying that he wanted to go on the big slide...we totally didn't believe him, thinking he would be too scared. But he was the first one up and wanted to go and go and go some more. We were pretty amazed and so proud.


He sure loved the blow up toys!

He also, with help from his cute cousins, Naivie and Norah, has actually tried new foods!!! Now, unless you know how picky he is and how hard it is to get him to eat something new, this may not mean as much. But to us, it's incredible! Thanks girls!

Some of the foods he has tried and liked are:

Ranch chicken
Nachos
Quesadillas
Hot dogs
Honeydew melon
Corn
Rice with different sauces on it, not just cheesy chicken sauce
Meatballs
Ketchup
Honey on his peanut butter sandwich
Muffins

And that's just the stuff I can remember!

He's such a stud.



BROOKLYN...


She's WALKING!!! So cute, and just in time for her first birthday, which is tomorrow!!!!



Isn't she beautiful? Look at those big gorgeous eyes.


We've also gotten a big garden in (and everything we have planted, except the potatoes, have sprouted, even though you can't tell from the picture!! It's a miracle.) And we have done a bunch of work around the house.



Life is good!!!
