Big Celebrations!

Aaron passed the Bar exam!!!

We are simply elated to have this part his and our lives done with! The poor guy had to wait nearly four months for these results. The anxiety built up so much that on the day the results came out he'd call me from work saying "only 10 more hours left." He came home early (was sent home actually) :) so he could wait in the comfort of home instead of being too distracted to work.

When 6pm rolled around, he signed into the computer and it said that he had passed! YEAH!! there was shouting, there was dancing, there were hugs and kisses! The reveling ended early however, when Aaron and I both fell asleep at 9pm trying to watch "The Mummy".

Yesterday, to really commemorate, we went out to eat at a place called Mandarin House. It's a chinese place that we had a Restaurant.com coupon for. It was SOOO good! We ended up getting the schezwan (spelling?) dinner that has several courses to it and we even splurged and got a couple appetizers. Aaron got these walnut prawns. Oh, they were so good. They should have been a dessert (but not many people count meat in the dessert group)! Needless to say that we have A LOT of left overs. Yes! Now I don't have to worry about cooking too much before our Thanksgiving trip. Anyway, if you like Chinese food, we would definitely recommend it. YUMMY!
