Graduation


Well, we're finally getting around to updating you on what's happened in our lives since May. I graduated from UAMS on May 21. It was a long awaited (and fun) day for me. We had a lot of our family come to visit and share the day with us. The 21st was also James' grandmothers' birthday, so we had a casual birthday party for her before we headed off to graduation.

James had a couple of suprises up his sleve for me that day. First, he reserved a limo to drive us to graduation. It was the first time I'd gotten to ride in one. I was glad we had it because we were running late for the ceremory and the driver knew a shortcut that got us there in time.

The next surprise was dinner at Gaucho's after graduation. Gaucho's is one of our favorite restraunts in Little Rock. If you live in Little Rock, you've got to try it. We had a great time with our family and friends that evening.

The last surprise James had for me was a cruise to Cozemel, Progreso Mexico, and Belize. . .more later on the cruise.

I certainly enjoyed the Feast of the Endless Meat (and Pineapples). May you graduate again soon. Have you ever thought about diesel driving? I hear that you can knock that one out pretty quickly, but it might only get me taken to Wendy's.

Ooo, I saw the Diesel Driving Academy on Airline Highway here in Baton Rouge. I immediately remembered the commercial. . ."Dial One-Eight-Hundred. . .Five Five One. . . Eight Nine Hundred. . . . Diesel Driving Academy!"

I think if I graduated from DDI, it would only be fair to have the party at a truck stop. Of course, I did write the book on truck stops.
