GRADUATION... FINALLY!!!!
BEST COLE FAMILY MEMORY! Michael graduated with a B.S. in Communications with an emphasis in Journalism and a Minor in History from BYU Idaho in July. Finally! He was basically a seven year part-time student. He changed his major a million times and put off his education to let me get my law degree and take care of Benson as a newborn. He pushed through hating school, changing schools, living in Rexburg by himself and then commuting from Twin Falls to Rexburg. I am SO, SO, SO PROUD of him, as is my family and his.
The Benson Hotel
I had been wanting to take Benson to Portland and go to the BENSON HOTEL since he was born. My mom, Benson and I went to Portland and the first stop was the Benson Hotel. The pics didn't turn out great but it was fun non the less. Benson kept talking about "my hotel" for weeks. Every hotel we passed or have stayed out since then is "my hotel." The hotel is famous for their bell boys, in as my mom calls them "monkey hats." Benson wasn't too thrilled to be taking a picture with the monkey man.
Family Pics
These pictures a few months old. We took them on Easter. Benson thought he was so cool in his tie and shirt. My mom found the shirt and tie on clearance for less than two bucks!
CUTE PICTURES
I took these pictures after Church a few weeks ago because Benson was being such a ham. Isn't he adorable? We think so!
