Doctor of Law

Yay, Brandon graduated from BYU Law School this past weekend! Thursday before graduation we went and took pictures by the famous sign. Unfortunately the weather was threatening rain so the pictures are a little gloomy looking, but at least we got them.

I love this picture. Notice Abbie sporting her BYU attire.

Thursday afternoon we went to commencement. Elder Oaks was the speaker. Brandon had pretty much the best seat you can get- front row on the comfy floor chairs. We (my mom, Amanda, Abbie, and I) ended up sitting on the very top bench behind the speakers- not the best seat to watch, but it was pretty good for Abbie because she could move around more and talk.

Friday, the law school had a brunch party with delicious Kneaders french toast (by far the best french toast I've ever had). 
Convocation was at 5pm that night in the DeJong concert hall. This time all the guests had comfy seats and the grads had hard chairs to sit on.

The hooding ceremony was by far the best part.


Here are all the awesome people that came to support Brandon :)

And last but not least our little family. Brandon and I were both very excited for this moment (not taking the picture). However, I am not quite sure what Abbie was thinking.
Afterwards, we went to Pizza Pie Cafe to celebrate this special occasion. You can bet that we were all starving by this point.

I am so proud of Brandon! He sure put in a lot of work over the past 3 years and certainly deserves it. Now all he has to do to be official is take the Bar exam in July.
