Christopher C Cooper, J.D.

May was a busy month, but the most important thing happened on May 18th. 

CHRIS GRADUATED FROM LAW SCHOOL!

We had a great time celebrating Chris for the weekend.

First up was a party at our apartment pool gazebo. We talked, laughed, played golf and tennis, and ate some really great BBQ. 

After our party, we headed over to party #2. When we started this law school journey, my smart husband was awarded a huge scholarship called the Hatton W Sumners Scholarship and the foundation throws a party for the graduation seniors every year. This year it was on a rooftop patio and lucky me I got baked in the sun. :)

After Uncle Hatton's party everybody had FREE TIME! The Cooper went back to their hotel so the Boys and Aunt Cupcake could nap. The Murdocks went to Bass Pro Shop to look at the fish and all the interesting stuff they have there. Turns out on that Saturday at Bass Pro you could also cook S'mores for FREE! We also went on the Bricktown riverwalk to see some cool statues!

                                              

                                              

                                              

                                   

The next day it was time for the Graduation!! I am a little bias, but Chris's graduation was the coolest I have been to. How many graduation have you been to where they had live bagpipes playing during the processional? The speaker was good, albeit a little scattered, and though I don't know if the graduates liked it, during the hour long hooding ceremony the announcer told some pretty funny jokes :) Also, I didn't get to see him, but Aaron Rodgers Hey Rodgers, Discount Double Check! was there. Chris also got to wear a funny hat Tam!

                                                

                         

Dancing to the bagpipes in the recessional!

I have never been as proud of Chris as I was when we walked across that stage. I may or may not have gotten a little teary eyed. It has been a hard 3 years, but HE DID IT! All the studying, prepping, face numbing hours have been worth it. I love you Dr. Cooper. You are an incredible person and I am proud to call you my husband!

Thanks everyone for coming to support Chris! We really enjoyed seeing everybody! Thanks for all his awesome gifts!! and... Thanks, Mel, Julia, SteveO and Bando for sending me pictures that you took and letting me steal photos from your blogs :)
