PROUD MOMENT OF THE YEAR, 2009!!

Ok, I'm gonna try to be back now.

This picture was taken with tears in my eyes as I watched my son receive his Bachelor's Degree (BA, Economics -- know anyone looking for someone with such a degree?) from the University of California, Davis.

As you may, or may not know, the relocation to Oklahoma City is complete. I will be posting pictures from my new/old home town (I grew up here) from now on (barring vacations, etc).

Strands of hair

Clayton's head, a day or two without washing his hair.

The moving/cleaning crew...

Spent the day with my son and his roommate, plus two of their very good friends, moving out of the apartment in Davis.

In order, it's Clayton, Tanya, Brian, and Daniel.

21 years old...

Today was Clayton's 21st birthday. As we did with Andy, we gave him a bucket with 21 "airplane" bottles of booze -- everything from Tequila and Gin to Bailey's and Kaluha.

We also went to one of the local Indian casinos in the area to experience one of the other "joys" of turning 21. Clayton won on something like his 5th slot pull (it was a nickel machine, and he won, I think, $12). The bonus picture below is him with his voucher.

Mugged at Yappy Hour ...

Clayton was in town this weekend and went to Yappy Hour at our Friday dog sitter's place (Bark to Basics, Shura Kelly, dog guru) with us.

The doggies loved him! Clemmy couldn't get into the middle cause all the lighter colored dogs wanted thier hairs on his black jacket.

There's a great picture of Clem taken there that is on the Flickr page.
