JACOB PASSED THE BAR!!!!!



Once upon a time there was a little boy, the youngest in his family.  His brothers and sister loved him and helped teach him things.  He looked forward to doing what they could do and finally...........

it was time for his first day of kindergarten!

Each year was exciting and he loved going to school.

As he grew he tried to do his best at everything he did.

He even did his homework with a smile

with the possible exception of when we were on vacation!

 He came up with some cool projects 

that made his dad proud.

And then he discovered rock climbing.......... 

 and computers

and comics.

He grew, got more handsome 

and had a great idea for a future company!

He knew he had to graduate from high school to make it happen

but wondered "Do I really have to go college?"

All his climbing helped make him so strong that he could easily beat his dad at arm wrestling.



Going to Yosemite to work for the summer was a dream come true for him and he not only got to climb some of the most beautiful places in the world but

 met the girl of his dreams there. 

 He golfed once in a while just to make his dad happy

and talked his mom into zip-lining, knowing it would make her happy.

That little boy is all grown up and now he makes the girl of his dreams very happy - and she in turn makes him happy.

 Oh how much his mother loves her boy!

It's no surprise to us that he passed the bar.  We've watched him grow and succeed for 27 years.  Now all his hard work has paid off and the future is bright and full of promise.  We love him very much and are so proud of both him and his sweetheart.  Now the next step is real life --- and a job!  Good luck son, go get 'em.
