Admiring his graduation gift...

I took the day off of school to re-coop from the weekend.... and Alex officially started his Bar prep classes today. No rest for the future lawyers of America!

Big Weekend!

Its a big weekend for us!

First, Alex celebrated his 25th birthday yesterday. We spent today at The Museum of Science and Industry (I have a field trip there next week, so I wanted to be prepared), and then we went out to dinner at Kuma's Corner, a fantastic burger place here in Chicago with LBC, Allison, and Fife. Literally, this place has the BEST burger I have ever had! They have so many crazy ones to choose from, it was wonderful!!

Tomorrow is the day he has been working towards for 3 years... yes.... he is graduating from law school! Ahhh! I can't believe it!

These past three years have gone by so fast for the both of us and I can't believe that he is one step (make that one huge step) closer to being an attorney.

It has been so amazing watching him go through this journey in his life, even though I know he is glad it is almost all behind him. I am so incredibly proud of him and I know he will focus and do what needs to be done to pass the Bar this summer... and then he will officially be lawyer!

A huge shout out to my bestie Brandy for passing the real estate test back home to become a realtor. I knew you could to it B! Another milestone, my future sister-in-law Kelsi graduated from Purdue last weekend! We had a great time back home celebrating the day with her! There have been 8 grandchildren in their family (including myself and another future spouse) graduate from Purdue. Boiler Up!

Lots of wonderful things happening around here... and only 5 more weeks of school. There is a light at the end of the tunnel and I call it summer!!

We're approaching the 2 month mark for our wedding and I'm ready for it! Still some small details to take care of, but most of it is in place.

I hope to post some pictures of his graduation on here soon. Check back...
