She has spent many hours studying and writing papers to reach this goal. The graduation ceremony was at 10:00am on Friday morning and that evening her family and friends gathered at a patio party hosted by Debbie and David Hudson. We had so much fun celebrating this accomplishment with Kathy.

Brian Hudson, Ronnie Cole, Tory and Thomas Roberts. It is so much fun to see how the boys are growing up and maturing. Three of these boys are now college graudates and have entered the working world. Brian is a Sophomore at Oklahoma State and it was fun to see him, he isn't home very often.
Thomas, Tory and Ronnie.
Steve and Debbie Shipley drove over from Littlefield, Texas to join in the celebration. Steve and Debbie were friends of Larry and Kathy when they all lived in Lubbock, Texas in the early 80's.
David Hudson is showing us how to make the Texas Tacos that they prepared for the evening. They were wonderful.

This was funny, here is a picture of Tory and Geoff. They were college roommates for several years. They both graduated in May and Geoff left for Houston to start his career. None of us had seen Geoff for several months. We were so suprised when he walked through the gate but we all had a laugh when we noticed that he and Tory were wearing identical shirts.

Geoff and Amy. We will all be traveling to Houston in January to attend their wedding.
Kathy, we are proud of you.
