Default So, can I brag on myself a little?

Today I finished my Associates Degree in Photography!

I know, you probably can't tell by my scrapbook pages, LOL! I don't worry about my own pictures that much.

Our Gala was last Wednesday, we had to meet with reviewers and show our work to the public.

It's taken me almost 5 years to finish it, with Keira having cancer twice during the process (and I took classes the whole time she was doing chemo) and I had Harper, it slowed me down. I took a year off after I had Harper, then I had to wait for the last class I need to be offered again.

The semester I found out I was pregnant I ended up dropping the classes I was taking, but otherwise I went pretty much every semester, including the summer until Harper was born. So I'm so excited to be finished!

This is a page I did about my booth/the gala.



I have a fanpage on facebook too, if you want to see more pictures.

Congrats! It's a big accomplishment regardless, but especially so with everything your family had going on while you were working toward your degree.
