Ashley's Graduation from GMC . . . She's UGA bound!

A LOT has happened since my last post but I don't have time right now to do so. Instead, I'll post the most important - Ashley's Graduation from GMC last Saturday, 6-14-08. She graduated with honors, GPA 3.69, magna cum laude, with her Associate of Science Degree in Secondary Math Education.

Yes, that is Frank Malloy on the right. He was the guest speaker.

Unfortunately Wayne was in California for work so he was unable to attend. Sabrina was out of town with her Mom and Brian was at work. This was the Ashley Thompson cheering section! Here is a short video of her actual "walk" to get her degree. To stop the music so you can hear the video, just click the pause, first button, on the music player.

After graduation we all went to the new Olive Garden in town for a small celebration. Ashley and I are going to UGA for her orientation next Friday and went a couple of weeks ago to sign her apartment lease. She'll be leaving before we know it. We are sure proud of you, baby! Keep up the good work and study hard! Hugs ~ Kim

I had to rewatch the video to see that. You're not a loser, Mickle, just a very excited person. It's just a a piece of paper anyway. The transcript is the piece of paper that really means something. :-)

Love all of you,
