The big count down has begun!!!!!

I know everyone is going to go what big count down? And I know that everyone knows that I am in school full time studying Business Management. I just found out two days ago that I have exactly seven more classes to go!!! I will be completely done with my undergrad degree on 7/7/09!!!!! I am so excited I can't believe I am so close to being done with this part of my education!!! I have gained a great appreciation for education as a whole in the past few years!! I have learned a great deal more about myself in knowing that I can do this, to think that when I started school almost five years ago that it was just Makayla and I, I don't know how I did it for three years by myself but I did and then two years of being married. I couldn't even tell you if one is easier than the other. All I know is a great deal of hard work and extreme amount of patients from my family!! And all these late nights doing homework will really pay off in the end!!! I am so excited!!! But when I told Dave that I wasn't completely done.... he had a really dumb-found look on his face. I told him well I think I really need to get my masters degree and he agreed!! So the late nights aren't completely over but at least this phase of my education is almost over!! What a ride!!!I would do it again in a heart beat!!!!

New House

Well we just moved again......... I really hate the thought of packing up everything and moving again. But this time we weren't given a lot of choice, our landlord informed us that he wanted to sell the house that we are living in currently. So began a rather quick journey of finding another house in a short amount of time..... it didn't take us too long to find one either!!! Lots of prayers I tell ya!! It just sort of fell into our laps!!! We love it!!! I just glad to be rid of the claw foot tubs permanently!!! The problem with living in a town that is historic as Astoria is... that you get to deal with old Victorian homes their everywhere!!! Nice too look at a pain to live in!!! We are just finishing up the final phases of moving and beginning to settle into our new house!!! Makayla is happy she got a swing set in the back yard that she plays on all the time!! It came with the house!!!

Makayla's First Day of Second grade!!











I can't believe that she is in second grade already!!! What happen to the past seven years? She has grown up so quickly before my eyes, what a blessing in my life you have become Makayla!!! Your a true gift from Heavenly Father and you are very loved!!! I just hope that you continue to love school as much as you do already!!! Your love of learning is a real joy to watch grow and blossom!!! I love you sweetie!!!
