It's official, I am a college graduate!!!! YAY:)

These are some of the friends I made at school. We had our class picture taken on May 29, 2008 and afterward we all took our own pictures.












This is Stacy, I'll be working with her at the University hospital on the Labor and Delivery unit. She's great.

This is my friend Cheryl. She and I have been friends pretty much since the beginning of the nursing program.









This is my friend Kate. She's pretty much amazing! Babies in the NICU at St. Mark's will be in good hands with her.





















Courtney has been such a great friend throughout this program. She helped me calm down when I was flipping out about assignments. She also helped keep me sane by bringing me back into the social world after I would climb into a hole for a while as I studied, read, or worked on papers.












Sue & Kate were my two "first" friends in the program. I sat between them on the first day of class and am so glad I made a great seat choice that day.







































Most of my family came to the actual graduation. Good thing Westminster is a small college and had 673 graduates (including all the those receiving their Masters). My parents; oldest sister Sara & her youngest Luke; Mary and her two children, Claire & Luke; my brother David; my sister Deborah & her husband Alex all came to cheer me on when they called my name. Thanks everyone for sitting through the 2.5 hour graduation.

Thank you Mom and Dad for EVERYTHING!!!! I definitely would never have made it through school without you guys. I love you!
