Big News! Adam Graduated!

You should refer to him as Adam Rowley, Esquire, now. Or Adam Rowley, JD. Adam Rowley, Juris Doctor. Okay, maybe I'm more excited about it than he might be. He still has to take the Bar this July and has a lot of studying ahead of him. He's taking the Missouri Bar, as we are still waiting to hear about job offers and the like. It's been rough out there for new lawyers, particularly the last graduating class (2010) and this one (2011). Hopefully things will improve.

I'm going to have to post pics! Also, Adeline had her first birthday, and tomorrow we celebrate Adam's birthday (although his actual birthday is on Monday). No kidding, it has been a busy busy May. Mommy is tired. But pretty happy. :-)

PHOTOS!

Waiting for things to begin and Daddy to walk across the stage. Hanging out with Grandma.





Bored. Time for a "crawling-on-the-grass" break.




Adam's name is read and he is presented with his Juris Doctor. The diploma is all fancy and all in Latin! Haha!




Adeline fits in a nap. Hooray!
