Swearing in Ceremony

On Friday the Spouses and Parents were invited to a mock class held by the Dean. It was interesting but pretty boring because the case was from the 1800's. I'm glad its not me going to Law school! After the swearing in ceremony Carolin and I met up with the guys for the Dean's Toast and refreshments on the front lawn of the school.

Yannick and Carolin our new friends from Germany.

Marshall and I

Marshall, Yannick, and Matt

So It begins!

We have started getting comfortable living in NY now. The thing I like the most is there are parks everywhere! They aren't just like the ones you see back home they are huge and they have statues everywhere. There isn't just some soccer fields and playgrounds they have beautiful landscaping, flowers and trees everywhere! This is Washington Park that is right next to our apartment. Karmen is going to love the park when she flies here in September! I'm so excited for the Fall here everyone says the leaves are so much more vivid here.

Marshall started Orientation today yay! Last week we went on a tour of the school. It was way fun to see a the classrooms. they look like miniature court rooms it was awesome!

This is the main building that has most of Marshall's classes.

Well we celebrated our one year anniversary on the 14Th its crazy to think that we've been married a year already!

Albany, New York

So we finally made it to New York after 4 days of driving! I drove the whole way because our car was so full Marshall couldn't fit behind the wheel. Well what can I say New York is so different from Utah. When we first drove in we didn't know where to go so we ended up in downtown which is a scary part of town. We finally got ahold of the Branch President and he offered to let us stay with him until we found a place to stay. He and his family have been so nice to us its made the transition so much easier. Albany is so pretty and green! We found a place to live but we can't move in until Sept. 1st. So we are still in limbo for the time being!

These are pictures of random things in the city mainly churches and old buildings
