Barrister's Ball and Matt's Birthday

Hello Bloggers!! We have been busy. Well I have. Matt pretty much has work, working out, golfing, and watching tv down to a science..I on the other hand had my trial last week..Lots of work, but we won!! Yeah!! At least I can win a fake trial.

Well Last weekend I had my last Barrister's Ball. I still love prom, it is even better with a bar. As usual it was a fabulous ball. It is amazing how fast the last three years have gone by, though I would not do it again. For fun I got my make-up done at the MAC counter before the ball..Let's just say I looked Fierce..


Fierce


Matt and I both looking Fierce...


The Belle's of the Ball and the best law buddies ever, Ash, Me, Renee,Linds, Leah

Yesterday was a big day for us. Matt turned 30. He is officially old. He is so lucky that he has such a beautiful and young wife to be. How many guys can count themselves as lucky as him...jk.. I made Matt his gigantic Carrot Cake which he requests every year. Which is fine, except I get sick from eating it..oh well.
Last night a bunch of us went to Half-time Rec. It basically is like being at a small-town bar in the middle of the city. They have a Dirt Floor in the basement for Bocce Ball, an Irish band every weekend, and incoherent old men who claim their stools at 4 pm, Can you beat that!! Matt said it was the best birthday ever.


That's some cake... I could totally beat the guys on Ace of Cakes


Birthday Boy!!

Well now that my trial is over I have a month of really hard work, a week off, and then bar exam studying..yuck..what a way to spend a summer. What am I going to blog about? Here I am in the library, wanting to kill myself, here I am in a coffee shop contemplating the life of a barrista instead of lawyering...not a bad idea..I know it would be a lot more fun. "Hi would you like to try our Venti, non-fat, soy, chocolate, latte?" That seems like so much more fun than, "Well, I think your screwed." Well...I guess I will find out! This weekend we are heading to Holstein for Luke's baptism, hopefully we can get a couple rounds of golf in. Hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather.

You do look fierce and you make a nice looking couple. Happy Birthday Matt! Congratulations on your trial Mo! and good luck with graduation. Time does seem to fly when you are having fun or under a lot of stress. So either way, the bar should be here and gone before you know it.
