Hail to the Orange, Hail to the Blue!

Jason and my Grandpa Overbey should be happy -- we  now have 3 U of I alumni in the family to help balance out the overabundance of NU grads (6). Betsy now officially has her Masters in Tax from the Illinois College of Business! And like a true Overbey nerd, she also received one of the 3 coveted awards of academic excellence, meaning an extra mention at the ceremony and an engraved Tiffany paperweight to cherish.

Somehow she found a way to balance work (80 hours a week during busy season), 12 hours of class every weekend, homework, take-home tests, AND her duties as aunt and sister.

Here are a few pics from the graduation ceremony this weekend. We are all very proud :)

Archie and the B
By the way, Archie is such a hit with Molls, she is currently chanting his name, "Ark-e, Ark-e, Ark-e," and reaching for the computer screen as I type this. Ha!

Congrats, B!!
