JESSE GRADUATED!!! 2008...

It ALL started when Jesse convinced his parents that he was
SMART enough to GED out of high school at 16?!?!
The letter came in the mail YESTERDAY,
stating that not ONLY did he pass the test,
BUT he received a MERIT of RECOGNITION for such a high score!
WOW! That really made his MOM proud of him!
and she said "PRAISE the LORD" over and over the rest of that day!!!
After the picture taking we hurried "island style" over to Taco Bell to celebrate over lunch and discuss IF Jesse wanted to go to the June 3rd graduation ceremony or not. We were SURE they would ask him to speak at the graduation IF he told them he would be attending... Jesse thinks he is NOT going??!!
Michael reminded Jesse that table manners were still important EVEN IF you are a "college student" so we made it through the rest of the meal...
Jesse is going over to the Jr. College tomorrow to sign up for at least 12 credit hrs. for fall semester!
IF you are looking for Jesse anywhere on the island, he just started a new job at Subway making sandwiches. Jax worked there the summer she beached and hung out on Oahu and Jesse just started training this week. SO, it would be a Subway shirt he will be wearing OR this hat which is his FAVORITE at this time!????
YEAH! He is a BIG boy NOW!!! Jenna is SO excited for him!
We ALL are!! GREAT JOB, JESSE!!! Happy and productive future!!!!
Jesse went to a Stake dinner/dance tonight and celebrated with other kids, the end of the school year.
This has been a good year for him!

THAT IS GREAT JESS! I love the fact that you are still wearing the hat we got you for Christmas. Um... we got that for you during the 30 degree weather not the 80 degree weather!
