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!!!

She has gotten so big!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAKAYLA!!

WOW... where did the time go?? I can not believe that she is 7 yrs old!!! Seems like yesterday that I was holding her in my arms rocking her asleep!! She is going to be in the 2nd grade in the fall and she keeps developing her little personality everyday she comes up with something different to say!!! I am so proud of how far she has come in the past few years!!!!



Here is a walk back in time!!!
