Trying to update my blog!

 I am so behind on pictures... this is my attempt to catch up :)  The pictures are very much out of chronological order.
 The Wednesday prior to graduation the school holds a senior banquet where awards are given out to students in several different specialties.  I was both surprised and honored to receive an award for Excellence in Large Animal Surgery, chosen by the faculty.  Fellow classmates, Jen and Rachel Hector and I got ready quickly for the banquet, after another hilarious skit filming event which took place at the dairy.  If you'd like to watch the senior skits we put together click on the link to the right called 'senior review'. 
Baby girl LeAnn is about 6 weeks old in this picture.  She was so tiny when we brought her home; 6 lbs 7 ounces and 21 inches long.  I couldn't stand putting her in the crib at night so she slept on my chest for the first 6 weeks.
Oh how LeAnn loves her baths!
It's so amazing that this little being was inside me! She has so much personality. 


Just 2 weeks after having baby girl LeAnn, I had to go back to school in order to graduate on time :( It was the most difficult thing I have ever had to do.  My only consolation was that her daddy was with her 100% of the time... and he is such a good daddy!
LeAnn is not a stay at home girl.  She loves taking trips in the car.  She even visited the Portland zoo!



Dad took this picture just after we received our certificates from OSU for our Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine!  This is the unofficial diploma prior to graduation.

The entire family was able to make it to graduation and I was so grateful because I know everyone has such busy lives!
