More Bragging...

Well, first of all I have an update on Lance's
U.S. Patent status...He just received notification
about 2 more that have been grante
d...bringing
his grand total to 12!! All of these patents have been for things...programs...whatever you call them in
computer-nerd world
...in the Intel chips --no, not potato--
but, the microprocessors . He's helped design the
chips since the pentium processor...I think...
Anyway---Good Job sweetie! You are such a great
and talented computer nerd! :) Love you!

NEXT...and please bear with me as I continue my
bragging streak...

Awhile ago I posted that Madi's poem was selected
for publication...Well, we received the book today!
She's officially been published!





















Here she is with the book! (don't worry grandmas
and grandpas...we got a copy for each of you too!)




















...And here she is pointing to her poem
on page 406! (do you think I'm an overly proud mama?)





















Foe those of you who didn't get to read it before,
Here it is again! Madi, you are such a talented
girl! We are so proud of you and know that you'll
succeed in everything you put your amazing mind to!
(Clearly she takes after her dad!)
Love you Madi! Great job!
