Bar Beard









This past week Bryan took the Illinois State Bar Exam. Instead of joining us in Disney, he had stayed in Chicago to do some intensive studying. While he won't know the results until early October, he feels that he was well prepared and passed. He will be starting his full time job with the Sidley Law Firm in November.

In addition to his bar prep class and his own studying, Bryan also decided to grow a beard for good luck and to help him pass the bar exam. As you may know, a Stanley Cup tradition is for players on the playoff teams to grow beards. Bryan figured if it works for them, why not try it. Plus he will look more like a Mulder male (less the gray and 40 lbs). Thanks to my brother Craig for the unauthorized use of his image.

I feel left out! Maybe I should start growing out my facial hair...

the "playoff beard" didn't seem to work out too well for the red wings this year...
I wonder if that means Bryan will be unsuccessful as well...
hmmm...
