So Sorry

I know it has been so long, so I figured an update was way overdue! I have just been doing work and school and trying to make it through! I am almost done with school though! I am currently doing my internship for my masters and I will be able to graduate in December!!! Mark has been finishing up his school also! He will be done in January so thank goodness in less than 6 months we will both be done with our schools! It will be so great to finally get to see him again! LOL! That is about it not very exciting! We will be going in a few weeks to visit family in Iowa and I am so excited about that! Well I will try to update sooner next time!

Update

Well I am finally done with my summer 2 classes! Yeah!!! I have a little break! I have started my 2nd session of teaching summer school but it's not that bad. Only Monday through Thursday of this next week and we are done. If I can just get through 2 weeks of wedding stuff for Lisa's wedding I think I might be able to relax a little.
We ate with the family tonight for a early birthday celebration for me! I got a new camera that I am super excited about! I needed a new one after my other one's shutter button broke and it's not going to be cheap to fix. Let's just say it was way cheaper to just buy a new one. It's sad. Oh well! Have a great night!

update

So this week has been totally crazy. I have been going back and forth between my house and Olga's taking care of all animals. Went shopping yesterday and got some really cute new clothes to start the new school year in! I am super excited. FYI White House Black Market (my favorite store ever!) has alot of clearance items!!! The one in Firewheel Mall has 4 racks full of shirts, pants, jeans and shorts various sizes and patterns on mega sale!!! I also made an 81 on my midterm for my masters class! Super excited about that, because this class is kicking my butt!!!! Well that's all for now! Everyone have a great humpday!!

wild day

Well Im sure everyone is impressed that I am updating this so soon again. Well the week is wild and now I am trying to study for my midterm that is on Monday. Everyone wish me luck! David and Olga are out of town this week on their cruise so I am house/petsitting for them! It has been a blast! I never knew how much they really go through and after this week I will have so much more respect for them (not that I don't already) but even more than before because now I have had an insight into what they do with these pets everyday! So kudos to ya'll!! Well everyone have a great Sunday and keep me in your thoughts tomorrow with my test!

So Sorry

Im sorry I have not written in such a long time. Olga got onto me so I figured I better not upset her so I am updating. Well things have been just crazy since I just last wrote. I finished up teaching my second year of Special Education in Crandall. I finished up my 3rd semester in my Masters classes. this summer I started out by teaching summer school for 3 weeks and taking a 10 day class for my masters. June was crazy! On top of all of that, Mark also started his school so he is working all night then going to school from 7-2. He is so tired when he gets home! Im glad it's only for a year and a half. I don't know how long we will be able to handle it! July opened up a little bit, I am taking another class but it is at night. So at least I get to see Mark when he gets home from class.
My sister got engaged on July 4th and has decided to get married August 23rd of this year! So now I am in the middle of helping her plan the wedding and planning a bachelorette party. It's going to be lots of fun and I will be busy busy busy! Wish me luck. Well that's all for now. I will write later!

Sorry

Sorry guys that it has been so long since I last wrote! Things have been a little hecktic around my world. So here is a quick update! I have been focused on my Masters school work. I had a huge project due right after Spring break so that is what the beginning of my spring break was. At the start of Spring Break I had to go take my GRE, which is incredibly HARD! So for weeks before that I was studying and writing another research project for another class.
Over easter break I went up to Illinois to visit family for easter. Mark came with me. We went to surprise my sisters. They were very surprised. It was a great weekend and we got lots of needed rest and relaxation! It snowed on us on our way to church Easter Sunday. That's something we don't see in Texas so it was cool!
Last weekend I went back up there for a surprise 76th birthday party for my grandmother. She was so surprised but I am still trying to regain sleep from that weekend!
On a sadder note, mine and Mark's friend Aaron, who has been living with us for about 6 months. His mom has been in the hospital for about a month, with different illnesses. Last Thursday, April 3rd, she entered the gates of heaven for her eternal life with God. This week was the funeral and wow! So many people were there, she truly touched many people's lives! We have all been struggling through this event this week. It will slowly get better. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family!
Hopefully from here on out everything will go smoothly. Only 6 weeks left until summer! Yeah!!! That means the pool will be open and we will have several months of relaxing!
Well I think that is about it!
