Backyard Graduation

I've kind of been a life-long college student. Or, so it would seem! After I had Evan (almost 13 years ago), I left the university I was attending and went to a technical college. I actually loved it and finished in 1999 with my Medical Assisting degree. Later on, I decided I wanted to go back and major in Psychology so I've taken classes off and on as time and money would allow. After we moved to NC in 2008, I enrolled with Liberty University's online program to finish my psychology degree. Since enrolling, the Lord has really turned my attention to education. So, a few months ago, I decided I would finish my associates in psychology so that I could begin taking education classes... In December, I finished my Associate of Arts in Psychology with a specialization in Christian Counseling! Because I wasn't going to Virginia to walk at graduation, I had to wait for my diploma to be mailed to me. I finally got it this weekend:)

We had a fake ceremony in the backyard!! LOL
I borrowed Chuck's cap and gown just for kicks!

I'm now considering what my next step will be... to continue at Liberty or to transfer to a NC university to finish my Bachelor's in Education. Noah has become an ECU fan so he wants me to be a Pirate. Chuck thinks I should go to UNC Chapel Hill...
No matter what, I'll always be a DAWG fan:)
