Going to the Middle of No Where

At the beginning of December, Ashton flew to Omaha and did another interview for pharmacy school. He flew on 12/4, interviewed in 12/5, and was supposed to come home late on 12/5. Well, due to snow in Minneapolis, his flight was 2 hours late coming in, making him miss his connecting flight by 10 minutes! He ended up staying in Minneapolis a night and was able to come home on 12/6.

When Ashton called me after his interview, he said "I rocked it Ali!" Well, he was right. He got accepted to Creigton University! We are going to put a deposit in, meaning if he doesn't get accepted to ISU-Meridian, then we will be headed to the "middle of no where", Nebraska.

Congrats Ashton!

We love lemons!



So I found this website, www.babycenter.com, and I love it. Each week I get an e-mail about what is developing with our little baby. I am 14 weeks pregnant, so by now the "baby can squint, frown, grimace, pee, and possibly suck his thumb. Thanks to brain impulses, his facial muscles are getting a workout as his tiny features form one expression after another. His kidneys are producing urine... and he can grasp, too." Last week, little fingerprints developed on its little fingers! So much fun! Also, the baby is now as long as a lemon, weighs about 1 1/2 ounces. (Length: 3 1/2 inches, head to bottom.)

Ashton's BSU Graduation

Well, we made. We made it half way. Today Ashton graduated from BSU with his Bachelor's in Human Biology! It's kinda sad to think that a Bachelor's degree is only half way because it is such a huge achievment in itself. It was a nice ceremony. Ashton's family braved the roads and made it up here to see it. Shauni and Dalton came too. It was so nice to have them there to celebrate with us. We also want to thank those who couldn't be there but were there in spirit. Thanks for all the support on getting us here.

This video is of the Color Guard. They had bag pipes bring them in. It was awesome.
