this past semester did not go like i thought. but im done with school and here is a little of what i have to show for it. (dont mind the poor quality, i took this video with the iphone... wheres michael p shoney when you need him!)

meet ham.

ham is the best dog in the world. he loves to sleep, he especially loves to sleep on you (which may not be as adorable when hes 70 lbs). he loves to fetch except he doesnt like to bring the ball back, i think thats part of the bulldog genetic makeup.

we did it.

and chase had the honor to lei us both before receiving our diploma, oh the perks of being best friends with the VP.



isnt pat's stache awesome, lets just say he went in there with a beard, and they told him he could not walk with that on his face. so he shaved something real dirty to stick it to the man.

thanks for all the support family, couldnt and wouldnt have done it without you.



and thanks jenni for the lovely pictures.

goodbye photo.

this is my last homework assignment forever. thank you katie for being a fantastic model.
