It's Official!!

So, nearly everyday since I finished my classes, I've been checking to see when my degrees would post. Part of that reason is because in order to apply to take the CPA exam, I have to have my degrees. This morning when I checked, this is what I saw:

DEGREES AWARDED - BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY

DEGREE : BS
DATE RECEIVED : Aug 2008
SCHOOL : Accountancy
MAJOR : Accounting
EMPHASIS : Tax

DEGREE : MACC
DATE RECEIVED : Aug 2008
SCHOOL : Accountancy
MAJOR : Tax

I have a Master's degree! (Poor bachelor's gets less limelight, but I also received that as well!) As soon as the actual certificates come, I'll take a picture and post them. Happy Labor Day!

"Birth"day

As I said in my last post, I've been looking through pictures lately. Actually since school is done, I have renewed my scrap booking hobby. I have quite a bit to catch up on. (I haven't done much scrap booking in the past 8 years!) So, as I was looking through pictures, I decided to share a few on here from time to time.

This is a picture of my "birth"day. This was taken just hours after my birth, when my siblings met me for the first time.I was born on the 26th of April, 1980, around 1am, at home. I was a pretty big baby, as I was overdue. Doesn't my mom look great for having just delivered a baby? I think she does. I am the 7th of nine living children. My brothers and sisters in the picture are: behind my mom from left to right, Sonja, Joseph, David, and Jonathan, in the bottom left corner is Amy, and on the right is Freeman. What a crew! Look! I even had a birthday cake! How cool!

This was taken almost 4 months ago, at the end of April.
I have been looking through a bunch of photos today, gathering pictures of me with my nieces and nephews. I don't have that many, but luckily Amy is SO great about taking pictures, I have a few with Jackson. (do you like how I am trying to duck out of the picture...there is no escape!) I especially like this one because of how both Jackson and I are laughing at someone...I don't remember who or why, but I like the picture a lot! (I guess this means I should stop complaining every time Amy brings out the camera. ONCE in awhile I like the ones she takes of me.....but not very often..... :) love ya Ames!)

I sure love getting pictures of my most favorite 11 boys and 11 girls! (hint, hint)

Victory Dance


While a bit early to know for sure (grades haven't come in yet) this is a clip of my victory dance at being done with school! (Hint: click the picture)
