May, where did you go?

May was a super busy month for our family. We packed our townhome up with the help of Mom and Dad Kelly and Nana Rose. We our so thankful for all there help as we would have never been able to handle taking care of a new baby and packing up our house all by ourselves. We used ABF and with the help of our friends we were able to load the truck up fast and smooth to make its way to CA.
Thomas and I took our finals and both graduated. I graduated from Minnesota State University of Mankato with my bachelors in Dental Hygiene and Thomas graduated from Hamline Law School with his Juris Doctorate.

We are so proud of Thomas and all his hard work these past three years. He is now studying hard for the CA Bar, which he will take the end of July. Poor Thomas did not get a break...we flew home Sunday the 23rd and he started studying for the bar on the 24th. We will be glad when August is here and we can have a month to celebrate as a family and enjoy our little summer we will have together before we leave for London in September. Thomas is going to go to one more year of school to get a LLM in international commercial arbitration.

Before we left Minnesota Mason was blessed on Saturday May 22nd. Thomas administered a beautifully blessing. Mason was so cute in his blessing outfit and was well behaved as his daddy gave him his baby blessing. It was wonderful to have both set of grandparents present for the blessing and our good friends the Sharpes, who we will miss terribly. John also was so kind to take all of these pictures I put on the blog too. Thanks John!!

I am so sad we won't be able to see you and the baby this summer! He is so adorable. My favorite pics are the one with him wearing Thomas' cap, also the one with Thomas and his dad both looking at Mason! You guys look great and we hope you are doing well!
