The Future Does Not Look Too Showery At All...

Happy Dance!

Well, I just sent off my Master's degree request and ordered my cap and gown! On June 8th I will be graduating from the University of Washington with my MBA.

I cannot really express (without getting a little teary-eyed) what achieving this degree really means to me. It is just a huge thing to me and I didn't think I would see the day....really.

What has made this journey easier is that everyone in our household has been in college right along with me!

On June 3, Simon will graduate with his Master's degree in Manufacturing Engineering from Oregon Tech. He has a 4.0 grade point average - which I believe is just remarkable.

On June 7, Jake will graduate from high school and Everett Community College. He will receive both his diploma and his associate of arts and sciences degree. He is planning to attend Western Washington University in the fall.

Big party at the Cook house in June!

Wow! What a family accomplishment. After you celebrate in June you'll all find yourselves wondering what to do with your extra time.
Congratulations,
