On the left is a picture of the four of us with Allison, who became a Doctor of Pharmacy today (from Drake Univ.). She's in the front there with Samantha, Alex on the right, and John and I on the left. We went to the Commencement Ceremony this afternoon in Des Moines, and then she had an Open House with sandwiches and goodies afterwards.

On the right is Izaac displaying his new "Hollywood" fashion sunglasses with Great-Grandma before he went home to take a nap (during Commencement). He joined us at the Open house along with his mom, grandma and Aunt Michelle. He enjoyed a strawberry at the party, dragging it around a little when he crawled and trying to share it with whoever he came in contact with. He likes (peeled) grapes, too. Good boy!!!
