He graduated and then...

Well, Chuck finally graduated law school. He did a great job and we are all proud! At that time, back in April, we still couldn't relax. Actually, the real stress had just begun. The 3 years of law school has nothing on the short 3 months of studying and preparing for the BAR Exam!!!!! It's that last semester and and then all the time preparing that really brings on the stress. The kids and I tried to be gone as much as possible. Visiting friends and family in Texas and in Norman kept us busy. Having to re-home our family pet was traumatic too. Oliver was sadly, a biter. We now have a little Yorkie named Mollie and she's great. But anyways, Chuck took the BAR in July and passed!!! Thank Goodness!!!! He has a job here in town at a firm doing criminal work for now and is also working immigration cases, which is what he loves. He is slowly building his clientel and getting his name out there. We are all so very happy and thankful that school is behind us. It doesn't seem that we've been here for very long at all. But I'll tell ya what, this last summer lasted forever! He took the BAR in July and then we received the results in almost mid-September. But way back in April, I made reservations for our family to go to Walt Disney World!! What better celebration than Disney!?!? Chuck and I were so happy that he passed, because either way, we were going. So we were happy that we were able to enjoy ourselves instead of being miserable. The trip was a tremendous success!! It was sooo wonderful. It truly is the happiest place in the world. Jared prays everyday to go back....heck, we all do!!

We're still sad we didn't go to Disney with everyone! But we are so happy that Chuck passed the bar. Can't wait to meet Mollie in January! She and Harry can be kissing cousins! Like Maeby and George-Michael!
