4. Thank you nolabear (blush)
I can't believe how lucky I got for that second shot. I had no idea where he was going to sit, and then bam! his hand popped up. Loved the kid behind him with the Mickey Mouse ears too. :)

5. My dear bluesbassman!
Wow, a happy day indeed!

Your son looks like a great kid, and his sister is gorgeous!

And the old man looks pretty cool too, I must say...;-)

I love the "Sea of Blue"!

Congrats!

17. Ain't that America, for you and me...
...despite all of the Sarah Palin chest-thumping, flag-waving crap, this is America to me.

Good moms and dads.

Good kids.

Hard work.

Accomplishment.

Thanks for allowing us to share in your well-deserved pride.

Must have gotten it from his dad. :)

Seriously - congratulations. Looks like you have some terrific (and genetically blessed) kids. :party:

Does he know what he wants to do next?

Genes usually skip a generation or two I hear. :P

He's been accepted at Boise State. Wants to pursue an MBA.

50. woo hoo! Boise State!
Edited on Mon Jun-13-11 07:38 PM by Flaxbee
My sister and her family, and my mom, all live in Boise. I like it there (but then again, I'm partial to the west and mountain west).
I'm trying to convince my husband it's a good place to live.


BSU is a good school. I hope he likes it.

On edit: No, you can definitely see the family resemblance with you and your kids. Don't blush. Learn to take a compliment. :P

Actually he is a very warm and compassionate person, but he's a Leo too, so he's either purring or roaring. :)
