Happy Anniversary to me!

I graduated from Georgia Southern 11 years ago today. Who would have thought that in 1992 while sitting in my junior year english class and watching this hokey video about this place called Georgia Southern (featuring some dude riding a bike around 'In the Pines'?!) and decided that GSU was the school I was going to (didn't even apply anywhere else!), that my life would change about as much as anyone's life could change. I am so grateful to have gotten a degree (that I never used), but mostly I am grateful for the memories and the people I met along the way - many of whom are named Ricker:-)

Thank you to all of my friends that became like my family while we were in school - I love you all like you are my family and I am so grateful that that we have grown up together. We share a bond of memories, secrets, trips, boys, dorms, activities, band, and I consider you each to be my sisters - I love you all!

Thank you also to those who were my friends and then let me become their family. It's been a wild ride and I actually learned a lot along the way.

P.S. Today is my BIL's b-day - Happy Birthday Clint! My first memory of you is Curt's little brother who sat quietly in the back seat listening to music or reading on trips to Atl to see Curt's other (very non quiet) brother Chris. Humm....guess I pegged that one correctly!

P.S.S My cousin Kimberly is graduating on Sat. I am really proud of her - I can't imagine how hard it's been to keep going while being married and having kids, but she did it! love you.
