Congratulations to Chris and Class of 2009!

Yesterday was particularly exciting, marking the end of Chris's time in law school. Yay! He worked so hard and did a great job, and I am so proud of him! I married a smarty! :) I'm also glad it's overwith because he spent almost ALL of his waking hours studying, with the exception of meal time and Sundays. It is so nice to have him back and be able to spend time together.


This is the view of the graduates entering the Rockefeller Chapel for the Hooding Ceremony. This building is really fun and we were fortunate enough to get seats up above in the back of the nave.
I thought this window was particularly beautiful.

The view of the ceiling (can't remember the architectural term from my Art History Class--Sorry Mr. Sieger).


This was actually the first part of graduation: Convocation. They received their diplomas at this part. The guys playing the bagpipes were awesome.

This is kind of a funny picture. Apparently the guy looking at the camera is also named Chris. So, when we were yelling out for Chris to look at the camera, this guy thought it was for him. I guess Chris thought it was for this other guy too, because he didn't realize it was us until after the picture was taken. Very funny.

Chris's parents were able to make it for his graduation. They were very proud of their law school graduate. It was good to visit with them. Thanks for coming!

Congrats Chris! That one picture is really funny. I bet the other Chris felt rather silly. I'm so glad to see your blog! It will be great to keep in touch.

Congratulations Chris!! I always heard from Dawn that how hard you studied. I'm sure you will be a great lawyer. And Dawn, thank you for letting me know about your blog = ) I just got a nice digital camera yesterday and we were talking about starting our blog too. I did have it but everything is in Japanese so you can't read...sorry. Well, I'm glad to see you here. Enjoy the summer!!
