Im done with COLLEGE


Last night I took my LAST final of undergraduate school. Derek drove with me to my final and when I got back in the car after the test this was waiting for me on my seat. Starbucks, flowers & a sweet card. What a keeper!!!

After my test we met my parents and Brett and Christine for dinner. It was the perfect end to a great last 3 1/2 years of college.

Monday was Shannon's last final also. I am so proud of her. She too graduated in just 3 1/2 years! Here's a picture of us Monday night celebrating her graduation!!!!
