Congratulations Law School Graduate of 2008

WAHOO!! We've done it! Louis Graduated last Sunday after three brutal years of studying Law at UW. It was a beautiful day, one of the first in a long time, Louis' parents and sister (with kids in tow) were all here for the event. Dar even got a chance to walk across the stage with Louis when he got his diploma. Hesitant at first, it's all Dar talks about now, he must have enjoyed it more than he let on. It was an enjoyable relaxing weekend. After the ceremony we went and walked around downtown at the space needle a bit. It was fun. Unfortunately the celebrations didn't last long. Come monday morning Louis had his nose back to the grindstone working on his BAR prep. By wednesday he was exclaiming he was burned out already and sick of studying. I guess I shouldn't have expected anything less, it is a pretty grueling course. And of course it comes just after finals, no real break. Luckily it's only for a month...of course I may not have much of a husband left, he might just go into hibernation for a while once he can be free of the shackles of study.

Way too much time and money!

I've always known boys like their toys but these two boys have had tons of time invested into these two toys. After the first one I said, never again, boy was I stupid to cave so easily for the second. Oh well, they had fun and some good quality time together as brothers. Sure, the nights with no sleep, driving 4 hours to kill them selves for 4 days are worth it, right, when they are done and you are looking at the finished product. I kept reminding them they aren't as young as they were in High School, but miraculously they survived....all four of them! I have to admit that the cars are very beautiful specimens of the classic car. So, Greg, Louis, here's to a job wonderfully done. :)

Baseball Boy!

Dar is so much fun. He is all into baseball and soccer at the moment. Everytime we turn around he is asking us to pitch the ball so he can hit it. We decided to take some pictures of his favorite sport, here they are. We got him the jersey and hat in preperation for Louis' 30th birthday because I got him tickets for the Red Sox v. Mariners game which was conveniently playing here in Seattle! GO Red Sox!! Unfortunately they lost. :( Oh well, it was a good game nonetheless.
