I can’t believe that these sweet girls are so close to graduating high school and moving on to their universities!! I have loved every minute that we have spent together as a little Spokesmodel family, and I can’t wait to see all of the amazing things they accomplish after high school! This shoot was so fun, seeing them all decked out in their college gear- especially after having watched each of them as they made their decisions on where their home would be for the next few years. I have known some of these girls since they were in the 8th grade, and I definitely teared up a little thinking about all of the experiences that await them. I love that some are staying somewhat close, some are taking a farther adventure, and two of my girls are even rooming together!
Keep reading to see where these fabulous young women are heading, what they took away from our year together, and what they are planning for their futures!
