Celebration

This past weekend was a huge celebration for us as family and friends gathered at a party for our daughter Alison.
She recently earned her BA in International Studies from UNC Charlotte and she is preparing to head to Switzerland for a year to work as an au pair and to hone her French language skills.
Ali is a well-travelled young lady. At 16, she made her first trip to Italy with her grandmother. She has since made her own trips to Paris, England, Italy, Scotland, Spain and Monaco.
We are so pleased for her (proud too) and we wanted to make sure to let her know.
Thanks for everyone who helped us celebrate.
Congratulations Ali!
