Congrats Grad!!!!

Friday was the big Day, Drew graduated from Law school. I can't tell you how fast three years have gone by. All his hard work paid off and now he has a Juris Doctor degree.

Wednesday night both Drew's parents and my parents flew in to help celebrate our big weekend. Thursday we went to the zoo (see next post). Friday was graduation. The whole thing was perfect. The speakers were entertaining and we all couldn't help but tear up when all the law students walked out. It was a proud moment for us all. They had all the parents stand up and then the grandparents, spouses/partners and kids. They congratulated all of us as well. It was a memorable night.

Drew, we are so proud of you and love you so much!!! Congratulations, you did it!

It was nice of Julie and her son Craig to come. We love the Floyd family.

We were worried that Mac would get bored during the ceremony and scream but he did really well. He was the best clapper there and entertained himself by sniffing and wiping his nose. He's such a goof ball.Drew in the crowd of law students with Eric Smith behind him and Travis Little in front of him. They were just missing Shawn Garner. The 4 LDS law students.

All the law students I could fit in the picture. There were 165 law students that graduated. I had to throw this picture in. This is me, Drew and Jed, three years ago at his BYU graduation. We had only been married 3 months; I was 21 and Drew was 22. We were so young! A lot has changed in three years.

Lions and Tigers and Horses?

Anyone who knows Mac, knows that he's obsessed with animals. Even when he sees a Robin 10 times in a day he acts like it's the first time he's seen it and freaks out. So we thought it would be fun to take him to the Cincinnati Zoo with the people he loves most.

Mac would sit on Grandpa Millar's shoulders and play with his hair. It was a win, win situation. Mac was entertained while grandpa got a head massage.

My favorite were the gorillas. The moms were so tender with their babies.

The white tiger

So independent Mac was overly excited at every exhibit.

We all enjoyed the zoo so much we are already planning another trip. You can't come to Lexington and not expereince the horse industry. Saturday morning we woke up and went to Keeneland for a nice breakfast and to watch the horses work. It was Derby day so there were a lot of people there handicapping and tailgating for the big race.

It was a rainy morning but Mac was prepared with his rain boots and rain coat. He had so much fun splashing in all the puddles.

Later we made our way to Taylor Made farm. After the tour of the stallion barns the girls left to put Mac down for a nap while the men stayed for a breeding session. Lucky them:) I've seen it once and I don't care to ever see it again.

We had such a fantastic weekend with the grandparents. Thank you again for taking time off work and time from the other siblings to be here for the big weekend! We love you.
