When the dancer was married to the lawyer...

photo of me by Susan Yee of En Pointe Photography

You hear that right! Mr. Branflake passed the California State Bar!!!!

For those not in the loop (or Facebook friends with me. Which you should be. For real.), he took the three day test back in July and found out his results on Friday, November 19th at 6 pm. The California Bar is the hardest in the Nation with a 50% passage rate. Even the smartest law students sometimes don't pass. Mr. Branflake has called it Black Friday for a reason.

It was a long four months.

We counted down the minutes.

Well, I was in class teaching. I have an arrhythmia and basically my heart was having major flutterings the entire time. A lot was riding on those results and you all know I'm not the most patient person (understatement of the century.) Have you ever heard of someone dying from nerves? That was me.

Cue dramatic music.

But all went well and now the dancer and her lawyer will begin a new chapter in their lives. And you all get to witness it (lucky you!)

Thank you for being on this journey with us!
Susan posted the above photo of me on Instagram and it was too good not to share. 
It's not at all related to Mr. Branflake passing the Bar, but a post without a photo is lame.
And I think it's pretty.
More pictures will be forthcoming!
