Doctor Esquire!

Sara graduated from Northeastern University School of Law! Woo hoo!

Joe and I took a trip up to Boston for the day to help celebrate. A bunch of us met at Sara's apartment and took the T to Matthews Arena for the ceremony and saw this sign...



Only...if you don't speak English, how are are you supposed to read the sign? Anyway, we got to the arena (which is quite the historical hockey rink) and met up with Sara. At first, she doesn't seem thrilled with the idea of posing for pictures...



...but then she seemed to warm up to the idea.



Inside the arena was a gigantic university seal...sorry it's out of focus, I was having lighting/focus issues. The thing was like 12 feet tall.



There was also a man holding a large stick and wearing a funny hat.



Hard to ignore were the 200 chairs which were set up for the 181 almost-lawyers participating in the days events. I actually have another version of this photo which is in clear focus, but I find this one to be drastically more appealing.



Unfortunately I have no pictures of the ceremony itself due to the aforementioned lighting/focus issues. But at the champagne shindig afterwards, I did snap a quick photo of Sara's brother Nick wearing the funny hat the grads wore all day.



Sara and Bob seemed to get a kick out of Nick in the funny hat...or maybe it was the champagne... ;)



Here Sara is with her dad Warren, on the T on the way to the restaurant.



The restaurant was called Masa and I think they got a little carried away with their sign...I know the theme was southwestern, but did the sign really need to be charred?



Bob and Warren turned stone chairs into a "modern" art installation while waiting for the T after dinner.



A great picture of Meg and Sara on the T.



Joe and I on the T (against Joe's will).



Just a pretty iris in Sara's front yard.



Back at the apartment, we met up with Cooper! Joe decided to scoop him up. I guess that makes Joe a Cooper scooper!



But after all that hanging around with Joe, Cooper reclaimed a comfy pillow.



All in all it was a really fun day. Air horns and all. :)
