This photo was taken when I went to Florida. It was for a very special occasion, special enough that Michelle Obama was suppose to be out guest speaker, but she had to cancel at the last minute. So instead Jurnee Smollet was our guest speaker. You know, Michelle’s friend Denise off of Full House? She also plays a central role in the recent movies The Great Debators.

Well, one of my friends wanted a picture with her really badly and couldn’t find anyone to take his picture with her. So he “took life into his own hands” and used his cellphone. She thought it was pretty funny.

Of course she loved his tenacity so much she decided to stick around and hang out with us for a couple hours after the ceremony/dinner.
