Graduation 12/14/2008

Okay it's time to celebrate I finally made it to my college graduation a twenty some years in the making to get to this day. Yeah!




Even though my Dad could not be there. I just wanted to say Thanks Mom and Dad for all your support. Daddy I never would have made it through the rough patches without your pep talks. I love and miss you. Mom thanks for everything from the moment you enter into my life all was right in my world. You were the best teacher I ever had.

Before the ceremony just hanging around on a cold and wet Sunday afternoon. This cold weather I do not miss at all.


The procession into the auditorium. Paul happen to be sitting on the right side of the aisle not just for the procession but also for which line I happen to be in for being seated. Honor students come right after those recieving their masters. Hmm maybe thats a new direction for me.

Good Luck Finding me I am somewher among the gold tassels sitting about 8 rows behind the stage. Our guest speaker was Dann Florek (the Captain from Law and Order: SVU) - he had attended Eastern and was bitten by the acting bug before graduating. He was a Honoree Graduate of my class.

Tokens of the day - Program, Tassel and an empty Diploma holder.


But I had finished in August so I received my Diploma in Sept '08

Way to GO!!!!! I am so proud of you and all your hard work! I don't know of any more deserving graduate. And how lucky to get to visit MI again! I LOVED all the pictures of friends in the ward. We really do miss the friendships we had there. So now that school is done what is your next step? I hope you just enjoy the freedom for a little while. I really am so happy for you! And thank your husband too for the LOOOOONG drive!
