The Lawrence Family: Congratulations Rob!

Congratulations Rob!

Last night I threw a surprise graduation party for Rob. He is finally finished with school. Yeah! He didn't really care for a party and is not planning on walking for graduation, but I figured he needed some sort of recognition for sticking with it and finishing school. We had my family and his local family there. Thanks everyone for helping out and supporting Rob. I am so proud of him. Congratulations Rob!
