What a celebration!


This was surely a night to remember.

I practiced my speech, out loud, three times a day for a week and a half...but not because I was nervous. No, not at all. Ha!

I sure am glad there were teleprompters. It sure changes the way you see the crowd out in front of you. I focused on the text on the teleprompters for the first few seconds and then realized, "I can see through the text and see the crowd." It made it kind of fun.

At first I was afraid to focus on anyone I knew. It didn't take long till I was looking over at Lynda, Dad, Cindy and Jim. It was about the most surreal moment of my life.

Mother was there and proud.
