Bo graduates from UF with his MBA!

Today was Bo's graduation day! We all went to Gainesville for the weekend to help celebrate and be there to watch him walk and get his diploma. Bo has been working on his MBA for two years. His hard work finally paid off! The graduation ceremony was very nice. We were sad that Leslie and the girls didn't get to make it down from Kentucky. We know they were so proud of their hubby and daddy!



Brooker is so proud of his Uncle Bo


Having a blast!


Sitting on Turlington Rock


Mommy lovin' on Brooker


School is so cool...especially at the University of Florida!


One of my favorites from the day!


Getting some energy out with Mammy before the ceremony.

Orange....Blue.....Orange....Blue

Today we went to Gainesville for the Orange and Blue Spring Training Game. This was Brooker's first Gator Football experience. He has a book called "Hello, Albert" that we read pretty much daily (we aren't brainwashing him or anything). It takes him all through campus and eventually Albert ends up at the stadium for the football game. We saw several of the sights that Brooker sees in the book...very cool for him! Although we didn't actually get to meet Albert, we did get a good picture of him on the field.

Daddy and Brooker looking so cool!


Brooker trying to get the football in the tower. With a little help from daddy he did it and won a football!


Brooker and Uncle Brian


Mom with two of her girls....we missed you so much Leslie, Rylie, & Baxlee

Trying to occupy Brooker...he wasn't all that interested in the game after about 5 minutes!

AES Spring Carnival

Tonight I took Brooker to the Avon Elementary School Spring Carnival. Thought this would be another fun way to celebrate his b-day. Brooker LOVED it! Mammy gave us some tickets when we got there and Brooker chose the games he wanted to play. He did really good and won lots of prizes. His favorite thing to do was the bouncy slide. Needless to say he was NOT a happy camper when it was time to get off!

I did it mommy!


The book walk...He didn't have any kids playing with him so he automatically won a really great book!




Goin' Fishin'


Taking a break so Mr. Eric could toss him in the air...very high!


Here's your bone doggie!


Aunt Laci is helping Brooker find the needle in the haystack.


Aghrrr...I'm a pirate!


All ready for the bouncy slide.


Going up the stairs with mommy...for all you Dora and Diego fans, you would appreciate the fact that Brooker was singing, "Sube, Sube, Sube" the whole way up!


Coming down....


Again, mommy, again! That was so fun!
