We went to Mississippi this weekend for Nathan's graduation. It was a lot of fun and quite an adventure! Here we are getting in the airplane.
Molly loves the airplane. She sleeps really well when we fly. Nathan's aunt Anna got her these sunglasses. The pink lenses lift up.
I look great in them too!
Inside the airplane. I rode in the back on the way there and in the cockpit on the way back.
This is in Arkansas. It was so pretty!
We flew near two nuclear power plants. I have never seen one in real life before.
This is a picture of the Mighty Mississippi. It's actually two pictures that I photoshopped together.
Here we are on the campus. It was really pretty - magnolia trees everywhere!
When we got to Mississippi (it only took two and a half hours!) we got a call from the car rental company who told us they didn't have the car that we had reserved. In fact, they had no car for us. The airport was kind enough to let us borrow the courtesy car for the weekend. It's a beaut.
Mississippi was a weird place. Maybe not all of the state is, but Cleveland was different for sure. We drove around for an hour trying to find a place to eat. We finally stopped at a place called Airport Grocery. We stopped because it was either that or Fat Baby's Catfish.
They had delicious food.
Molly couldn't stop eating. She ate the entire time we were there.
Graduation was great. I didn't get many good pictures though. They were either too dark or too fuzzy. Here's Molly in her graduation outfit. Thanks to Crissie for the new dresses!
We sat close so we could see. She was all about trying to climb over the ledge.
YAY FOR MASTER'S DEGREES!
Nathan's now a Wildcat and a Fightin' Okra.
Sunday was a special day too! First, Nathan was ordained as a High Priest. Second, we had a small shindig for Molly's first birthday. Nathan's family was in town and we invited a few couples from our old ward over for some cupcakes and snacks. 
She LOVED the cupcake. I have been trying all day to load the video of her eating it. It's not working.
She got some great gifts! Thank you to GGG for the books and dresses! The Dr. Seuss book is so amazing! Thank you to Gma Dot for the clothes and the headbands! She already knows what to do with them. Thank you to Williams to the Max for the drum set. So far, she likes to pull everything out of the drum and crawl inside. Thank you to Mary and Danny for the jeans and sweater. Thank you to Ashli, Trowtt, Q, and Trista for the beachwear. We can't wait to use them! Thanks to Grandma Roselle for the summer clothes, and the Greenes for the gift card. And thanks to Crissie for the dresses and the walking car. We are so blessed!
Here's the beachwear. Behind her are our friends Bryce, Lissa, and their 6 mo. old Pierce. Molly likes to flirt with Pierce. A lot.
Tomorrow she is one year old. She is such a joy and a blessing to us!
