As I look back over the past three years I cant help but remember how far we have come! We moved to Spokane Washington so Brian could attend Gonzaga Law school in August of 2005. I literally cried for days and days! I thought it would never end! We had friends tell us that were in their third year, Jared and Emily King, that it would fly by and I thought they were just trying to make me feel good! But I can honestly say that it flew by! What a blast we had and the friends we made we will never forget. I am so proud of Brian. The poor guy would get so sick every semester during finals with sinus infections, swollen tonsils, canker sores and back problems because of the stress! He was a new man the second they were over and then we would party like crazy! I waited for this day for three years, Brian had waited his whole life and Drake showed up at the end to party! That was the best ending! I love you Brian, thanks for taking care of me and Drake. Thank you for being the best husband and the cutest dad. Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!! We made it!!!!!
Brians mom and dad and his brother Ashton we there. That meant so much to us!

I love this picture of the dads with their sons! Both law school babies!
These are Brians two best friends, Malone and Spencer. They all hung in there together!
Like father like son! Drake has some great footsteps to follow in.
My cute brother Tyler and his wife Sunee and their daughter Braxton and new baby Brolin came to the graduation. Thanks for sharing this fun day with us! We miss you already!

You guys officially suck! Just kiddin! No but really, I am so jealous that you are done with school. Can't wait for that day!!!! Hopefully you guys are all settled in now and having a good time in Utah. I hope we didn't drive Brian crazy when he stayed with us. The weather is still wacky here in Spokane so be glad that you are outta here. Good luck with the bar and we will see you guys in August for sure.

Hey Brian and Emily, this is Melanie or Mel (Jones) Bassett. I found your blog through Kristin (Harris) George, and then through Lance. But I don't know why I didn't find it before on Crystals, because Taylor is my cousin. Anyways, I just wanted to say hi and congrats on graduating and for the new little boy. He is a cutie! Tell your family hello.
