Doctor Harris

We were very excited to travel to Nebraska to see Chris graduate with his PhD in Finance from the University of Nebraska the first of May. We took a few days together to enjoy some down time and celebrate the occasion!






When you press on the "pretty princesses," music plays and the princesses sing. On one of them, little birdies chirp in the background, and every time the birdies would come on, Addie would move her fingers like in these photos...adorable!


Ready to head out to the Graduation ceremony...



 
 

 
Nathalie made him this cute (yummy!) cake, and we surprised Chris and all went in together on the framed picture of George Washington praying. He's always really liked that picture.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
For the LOVE of LEGOS!Pops got the boys some Legos to put together to get them ready for their new FARM in North Carolina! (they also did some other more complicated sets)
 
 
 
We got to go to one of Colton's soccer games. Even though it was only a FREEZING, WET 38 DEGREES outside, it was fun to watch the game, and we hurried home afterward and had hot chocolate! (In Tennessee, that game would have totally been cancelled.)
 
 
 
 
Tickle fights, wrestling, and watching Addie...
 
 
Colton and Rogan WROTE a play, complete with "BAM!" and "POW!" and other expressions all the way through it. It was fun to watch good overcome evil, and the princess was rescued, as the whole family performed the play!
 
 
 
 
 
We spent one afternoon at "LOST IN FUN" game/play place.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Late night Axis and Allies WARS...!
 
 
 
On the Sunday we were there, there was a special Stake Conference, and the guest speaker was Elder L. Tom Perry! That was an added bonus to the trip!

Great time! Can't wait to see everyone again when they're passing through (in July?) on their way to move into their new home in North Carolina!

I actually DID eat sushi, we ALL did, and liked it! I think Chris & Nath chose some very mild COOKED kinds that were quite yummy. I don't think I'll be converting to it as a regular any time soon, but it was good!
