I thought I would say hello!! So HI!! :) Heather and Adrienne...I think I forgot to send this pic on 3 months ago. Sorry!! If you can't save it to your computer from here, let me know...I'll send it over email. This was a fun day- Heather and Adrienne were in town at the same time in June and invited me to lunch. I suggested Cafe Ba Ba Reeba (Spanish style restaurant at the Fashion Show). I love that place and it was so nice to catch up w/ them. Adrienne looks great and Heather is still just as cute as ever!

Well, for those of you wondering about the bar...I have about 9 more days until I find out. The bar was probably one of the worst experiences of my life. So not fun. After the bar I felt kind of indifferent- like it could go either way, and I wouldn't be surprised. As the weeks have gone on, I feel worse and worse about it. I'm pretty sure I did not pass, but we shall see. NV is one of the hardest bars in the nation w/ pass rate being around 50%. I'm getting really nervous, and it's all I think about lately. Hopefully I will have some good news to share soon, but if not, it's back to the books to prep for the February bar!

Since the bar, I've had fun for once! I went to the beach a couple of times in August. I slept in everyday. I went to the gym a lot. I talked on the phone. I went out in the middle of the week just because I could. Having nothing to do was extremely nice, but it got a little boring. My job ending up falling into my lap. I know I was blessed. I hadn't been looking for jobs (although I should have been). The law clerk for the judge I used to extern for called me up and said that she was looking into another job and asked me if I'd be interested in clerking for the judge. Of course I said yes and Natalie ended up getting the job. So I went from jobless to employed w/in a couple of days. I love my job and it is in the practice area I'm interested in. She is the judge I was trying to get in w/...just goes to show God is watching out for us. And the nice thing is that my job is not contingent on the bar.


These are Lisa's little ones. I love them and glad that they are back in Vegas. This picture is at that park we all used to hang out at. Lisa, the kids and I had a picnic. Great day! Lisa and Taylor are currently awaiting the arrival their baby boy...probably sometime in the next couple of weeks.

Not too much else is going on. I've had a hard time adjusting to working. I'm not used to getting up so early. I certainly miss my daily nap. So I haven't done too much this past month.

Last wknd was an excellent reunion of all my college friends. It was the UNR v. UNLV game. Reno kicked UNLV's butt (GO PACK!!!)! It was a super fun weekend.


I've rambled long enough. I love to read your guys' posts, so keep the blogs and pics coming (please :) )!! Keep on Keepin' On. And always remember that Amber loves you!

It's always great to hear from you Amber! Congrats on the job and for finishing the bar. I still don't know what I'm gonna do in a couple of years when I take boards! Good luck, I'm sure it will work out. My Dad failed the bar the first three times he took it! (don't tell him I said that!:)) Take care and I hope to see you in Dec.!!! Brad
