he is 'oriented'.....

After a week long of orientation.... Nate had his induction ceremony on friday. it was held in the Severance Hall which is on campus at Case Western. it is an AMAZING building, super old. the inside is beautiful but the pictures didn't turn out so well. after the ceremony i met some of the guys in his class that he met (and their wife's). there are two of them that graduated from BYU as well so that is fun to have that connection. the school provided a lunch afterwards with some yummy food. nate is now officially 'oriented', a 1L (first year law student), and starting classes on monday! i cannot believe that we are here- IN LAW SCHOOL!! our conversations/thoughts for the last three years have been 'when we go to law school' or 'during law school' and so many of our decisions have been concentrated towards applying for law school.as i watched nate walk into the hall it hit me... we are here! i 'm so proud of him for taking on this HUGE challenge and don't doubt his success for a minute! i know he is very excited/intimidated/etc... but know he will do great! when we tell people that we just moved here they of course ask what brought us here. as we tell them school they ask what grad program he is in. we say law school they ask "at Case? that is very impressive. congratulations". i definitely echo them as well Nate- Congrats and i am continually impressed by your achievements, goals, and intelligence! part of me-ok, ALL of me- cannot believe that we are in cleveland of all places but i know that this is where we are supposed to be. i love nate so much. he is pretty much the only person i would follow out here and STAY out here with. anyone else, i would have ran home about 10 minutes after arriving, not even joking! here's to a good first day of school and a GREAT first year!
