IT FINALLY HAPPENED!!

It finally happened and in typical "Lane" style! Our daughter graduated with her undergrad degree from Springfield, MO at 10 am on Friday, May 15th..then we drove 3 hours to Columbia, MO, hung out at Trops (yummy adult beverages) and I graduated with my master's from Mizzou at 8 pm.

I couldn't be prouder of our daughter and I couldn't be happier!! It was a very memorable weekend!!

Happiness is......

Why are we so happy? NO MORE COLLEGE TUITION for anyone!

My masters is accomplished, our daughter is done with her undergrad (and looking for that Art Grad School) and well, Life just got easier!!

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!

You see two art renderings of Barbie, but you see only ONE LA, why? Ahem, there can be only one..the mold is gone, she is the best, exceptional, skilled, articulate artist I've ever seen. Her Senior Exhibit proves she pushes the boundaries (hmmm, wonder where she got that?) throws back the standard square box and stands before the world to show her thoughts, feelings and talents.

Can't wait to see what her next life will consist of..undergrad is closing soon.. and new doors are opening!
