Driving
We are finally out of Utah and in California. Robert and I left with Brian and Mindy and another car for Sacramento. Brain and Mindy are getting married this weekend. Then Robert and I are off to Orange County and then to Arizona for engagement pictures. The driving went well. I drove the first half of the trip and Robert drove the second half. We had rain and snow in Utah and part of Nevada then the weather was nice and sunny. I'm am sooooo tired and am ready for a little down time. (I probably won't get any until after my own wedding.) California here I come....

No More Teachers, No more Books.....
So Robert and I finished our last final today. As of April 25th we are officially 2L's! The final went well we both belt good about it when we finished. Then we had lunch and ran some errands. We got Brian (Robert's brother) and Mindy a wedding gift and we will drive to Sacramento with them on Thursday. Mindy is from Canada so they are getting married in Sacramento. Time for a nap then off to finish my paper.

Migraine Headache :(
Robert and I were in our study group for our Property final, we have that final tomorrow! Suddenly my eye-sight started going funny, soon I couldn't see out of my left eye. It was scarry. We waited 20 minutes and it didn't stop so Robert drove me to the doctor. I was scared because we have this final tomorrow and I needed to study and then be able to take the darn thing. The doctor said it was a classic case of a migraine. I didn't think of that because I didn't have a headache until after my eye-sight returned to normal! Anyway, I now join the ranks of migraine sufferers. I've had these same headaches during this semester but I had never had the eye problems until today. Go figure. One more to go then a paper and then I am a third of the way done with law school. Yippee!

Engagement Story (Finally!)
So it's about time that I share my engagement story. Robert and I knew in January that we were going to get married, but by brother Mike and his then fiance Adrianne were getting married in February. We did not want to take any of their spotlight so we did not tell anyone until after their wedding. It was a beautiful wedding and Mike and Adrianne were both so happy. My grandmother died the week before the wedding so we had a wedding and a funeral. We finally went ring shopping the week after the wedding. We were told it would not be ready for another week, so Robert was surprised when he had a call a few days later saying the ring was ready. He went and picked-up the ring.
That night he tried to recreate all of our significant dates but I wouldn't let him. We both had a HUGE paper due that week so we were working on it. He tried to get me to take a break so he could recreate the dates but I got annoyed and told him we had to work on our papers (he's the one that makes sure I take a break and have some fun). I was stubborn so he talked about our dates and recreated the significant dates we had had at my apartment. He ended with asking me if I remembered when he first asked me to marry him. I was sick and he was taking care of me when he had first proposed. I said "not right now" (he knew what I meant: Mike's wedding, school, and not dating very long so we would not tell anyone until after Mike's wedding). This time he slipped the ring on my finger when he asked me. I was totally shocked and speechless (yes I was speechless I know that rarely happens!) I was soooo happy and so was he.
We are getting married July 25! We wish it could be sooner but we both have legal externships this summer starting in May and ending late June. Mine is in Irvine, his is in Washington DC. We will have a few weeks after the externships are finished to complete the wedding details and then get ready to start our marriage.

Two Down One to Go

Huzzah! Torts is done (no not the pastry). I feel good about the test, it diffently went better thatn Constitutional Law did. Robert feels good about the test as well but feels that he did better in Con Law. We just have Property left and I have a paper to finish. Spent the night at Lauren's last night. I just love the Watson's they are so kind and down to earth people. Lauren and I have been good friends since we were ten years old. Off to the cabin this weekend to get my stuff settled in storage up there. I'm also excited to see how the remodel is going.

One Down
One down and two to go plus a paper. Robert and I have just finished out Constitutional Law final. We both think we passed but we don't know how we did other than that. It was a hard class. Now for lunch and then off to study for the next final - Torts (no not the pastry) :) It snowed yesterday! It was about 65 degrees and then it suddenly got cold and started snowing :( Not much else is going on, just finals, finals, finals.

Finals
Robert and I have our two hardest finals this week. On Wednesday we have Constitutional Law and on Friday we have Torts. Both are really hard and we are hoping we pass. We are meeting with our study group for the next couple of days to study for Constitutional Law. Then Thursday will be devoted to Torts. I also have a huge paper to finish for a class and a Property final next Tuesday. It is going to be a busy time. Robert's brother is getting married next weekend so we are leaving right after finals to go to it; we are excited for Brian and Mindy. We are then going to my house and then off to Arizona for engagement pictures. Now back to finals studying.
