Class of 2009

On Saturday I graduated from Sam Houston State University with a Master's degree in Educational Administration. In other words, now I can be a principal. The commencements were at 10 am so we had to get there early. My family came and hubby took some great pictures. Afterwards, we had dinner at Texas Roadhouse, yum!

A thank you goes out to my family for their continued love and support.

I could not have done it without them.

A special thank you goes to my hubby for putting up

with me for the past year and a half while

I made it through this once in a lifetime accomplishment.

Dreams really do come true.

Love,

Courtney, M.Ed.

Graduation Lunch.

I was suprised to see one of my students from two years ago. This little girl has such a sweet heart and is so intelligent. She is in LOVE with Mr. Williamson. They are like two peas in a pod. The family congratulated me and were so happy for my achievement. Here is a picture of Madison and I. I know in a few years I will see her graduate from MHS and I know I will be in the front row with her mommy.

The hungry family...We waited a long time for our table but it was SSSOOOO worth it. YUMMY FOOD!!!

We ate ssssooooo much food. Then they bring out a graduation cake from mom and dad.

Finally home after a long day.

I LOVE HIM!!!

I could not have done it without him!

I'm so proud to be his!!

Kisses for the graduate!!

Our wonderful neighbors brought this flower arrangement for me. They are the best neighbors ever. I never cared for orange roses but how beautiful is this! I might consider orange a bit more but not burnt orange, ugh!

Thank you for bearing with me through this rather lengthy post. It was a great day and another wonderful memory.
