Yesterday, Charlotte graduate from Sam Houston. I think I should feel old because my youngest sister is now a college graduate, but I don't. I guess that is a good thing. Charlotte earned her B.S. in Family & Consumer Sciences. She has no idea what she wants to do and has not found a job yet. So if you are reading this and need to hire someone...she is looking. She will still live in Huntsville, so it needs to be close to there... Her current "occupation" will be getting all the last minute details together for her wedding next month. I am sure she will be very busy in the coming weeks.
After her graduation, we went to a party for her and another graduate at The Vineyards of Waverly Manor. Charlotte and her friend Lori were both interns at this place this past semester. They learned even planning and all sorts of things while working there and helping with weddings. The party was superb. It was pot luck, so I brought decorated sugar cookies. I love decorating cookies so I thought this would be a great time to make some bearkat paws.
Here are some pictures from graduation, right after and at the party....

Cake...It was supposed to say Congratulations Lori & Charlotte, but it was Laurie...it was wiped out and "fixed". I think I might have to submit this to Cake Wrecks....it was a very yummy cake by the way.
Taryne after she had some of the cake...

Zach & Taryne...in her Buda position...
Zach had Taryne try on the orange wig...she looked like one of those trolls...maybe we should dress her up as one for Halloween...all we need to do is take of her shirt and a jewel to her belly button...
I am so glad we were able to be a part of Charlotte's graduation. I have watched Charlotte grow and become a wonderful person over the last 5 years of college and the last 22 (almost 23) years. Congratulations Charlotte! No more papers or tests!!! Whoohoo!!
Until next time...Gig'em!
