Walking the walk into graduation. They were supposed to have it outside but because of the threat of rain they moved it inside.
4 generations were there last night and my Mawmaw would have been so proud. She was definitely missed, there was no one like Ashleigh to her.
And we thought the silliness came from Rusty.
The countdown is on, Pawpaw and Margie get married on the 16th. We are very happy for both of them.
The very proud Daddy and Granny.
Ashleigh and her Granny.
Ashleigh and her aunt Bev.
Ashleigh, Wayne and 3 of our nephews, Brett, Jacob and R.J.
Ashleigh, Rusty, and her Uncles Gary and Bobby. (Are you starting to get the feeling that this is all about Ashleigh?)
This is Ram Country.
This is Ashleigh and Mrs. Korte. She was Ashleigh's favorite teacher of all time. She made history completely come alive for her students. Ashleigh class was her first teaching job in Strasburg and she told them she had better receive invitations to their graduations. She was there to congratulate them and cheer them on. She is the kind of teacher you want your child to experience.
Ashleigh and her 2 best friends, Brooke and Jamie.
Ashleigh and Mr. Dorman, her principal. He is another one of those people who isn't just doing a job, he truly cares about the kids. When Ashleigh was a freshman he started at their school as the principal and he is a wonderful person.
Ashleigh with her diploma.
And her scholarship. Thank you to the Rotary for the scholarship.

Congratulations Ashleigh!
What a milestone! What memories!
Ash, Lets get together, and I'll tell you some stories about your mom and your uncle Steven from when we were in school. BWAHAHA! Kidding, B!
Oh, I so don't think so. You are so funny!! I would like for us to get together sometime, though. We did have some good times together.
Congratulations again on the graduation! What a big, caring, involved family Ashleigh is lucky to have!

Oh, these pictures are just wonderful! I'm so, so glad Ashleigh had such a delightful celebration. Sounds like it was a good time had by all. :-)
Congrats to the lucky couple - that is SO sweet!
And don't you just look absolutely radiant? And Rusty, too. Sheesh, you'd think you were on cloud nine or something. ;-) Y'all look gorgeous!

Like all of us have done, years down the road you will remember this occassion and appreciate it far more then you do now. You will add to it more monumental memories of perhaps college graduation, marriage, babies, Miss USA
...whatever, the sky is the limit! I would tell you to have fun but you have that down to a science so instead I will say DREAM BIG and then make those dreams come true. You are blessed to have the foundation of a family that you will appreciate more and more the older you get. Gibson's love one another - and yes, they love to party and you are a Gibson! Congratulations to you and to your parents for having survived you.
Love, Aunt Bev
*sniff* Wow, just wow! What an amzing daughter you have, and the scholarship is just TOO great. Everyone looks so happy in the pics. What a proud mom and dad.
