A week of celebrating...


My daddy had a big actuarial exam on Thursday. He had been studying and preparing for this since January. He came home Thursday afternoon and I had my new t-shirt on just for him. Mommy and I had been praying he would pass it, and he did! Yea Daddy!On Saturday we traveled to Anderson for Hannah and Brandon's wedding. On the way, we stopped at Anderson University to see where daddy went to school. We took a picture outside of Helios on the campus. Maybe I'll be a Raven someday.
Hannah and Brandon's wedding was great! I got to see a lot of mommy and daddy's friends there. This is me with Dave. He made me laugh!
Sunday was mommy's first Mother's Day. We went to church early so that we could travel up to see grandma (and grandpa, and my great grandma, and great aunts Owi and Ami, and first cousin once removed Emili and her husband Andrew and their daughter Rilei). Mommy told me she is so blessed to be my mommy! Daddy made her cry with a sweet card, and laugh by writing funny things in it. I picked one out too. It had a turtle on it (my favorite)!
We had such a fun week! I love spending time with daddy. I am so glad he's done studying for a while; now he'll be home earlier from work and that means more time to do fun things together. Here are a few pictures from our time last week:

Wow…you really have settled into “retirement”….rummage sales, drums, making super cool t-shirts!!!

I can't believe how big he is getting, stop by BF if you get a chance.

I finally got to look at these pictures - very nice. Although I have to say he favors the Behny's :-) He has grandma and great-grandma's eyes (and grandpa Guy's hair line :-)

God bless you - it's a blessing to see a dedicated Christian young family.
