Graduation Day!!!

We all say it, feel it and think it, but really...where does the time go? Kelsie graduated Saturday from Roger Williams University in Bristol, Rhode Island with a Bachelor of Arts in Dance and a minor in business. We are so extremely proud of her!! We told her to follow her heart and do what you love to do in life.

Dance is her life.

Here she is at 2 years old dressed for her very first dance class!!

This is a cute picture of Kelsie and Courtland waiting in line to start the day. Courtland is engaged to our oldest daughter Courtney. We love him to pieces and are lucky to have him as part of our family. All three went to high school together and all  three went to Roger Williams too.

I'm going to DISNEY!!!

See the little Mickey ears on her hat and the Disney font for RWU? She was accepted to the Disney College Program for the Fall session. It's been her life's goal!!

If anyone has been a part of the Disney College Program, we'd love to hear from you.

  14. Congratulations on such a great milestone and to all the adventures to Kelsie that come after! I was never in the Disney College Program (not worked there) but if she ends up coming to Orlando to WDW, we live 2 miles from Magic Kingdom and I'd be happy to help in any way I can.
