Let's Catch up!!

Well its been forever so it seems since I posted something. I offically graduated and can call myself McMurry Alumni now. It was a wonderful graduation ceremony...SHORT AND SWEET. It was a busy graduation weekend for sure. Aaron's on Friday, mine Saturday and then that night we had our PARTY!! I want to say thank you to Lupe for hosting the party for us!! It was wonderful and yes I still need to write Thank You notes...man one of these days I'll catch up with everything I need to do. Well that following week I started a Long Term sub job at Fannin. All I can say is that is certainly interesting....to say the least. I'll be doing that for another 2.5 weeks after the Christmas Break and I can't wait for it to be OVER...I just want to stay home now and get ready for the baby. I finished out the semester with them and then the Christmas RUSH hit. We didn't get started on our Christmas shopping until Dec. 22nd...yes thats only 3 days before! I am extremely happy to say that DAVID PASSED ALL HIS CLASSES!! Woo hoo!! He's got one semester under his belt now. Since then we've just been hanging out at home and relaxing. We spent time with Chavo over the holidays and tons of time with both families. We well rather he...not so much me...played football with my family on Christmas day. Lets just say everyone was sore...David came home bleeding, my sister with a swollen ankle and Kannika with a severe headache!! We're now in the home stretch to the end of the year and working our hinnies off so that we don't have to go into work on Friday since it is our 7 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!! We just have today and 6 hrs tomorrow then we get to start the new year celebrations with our families!!

The morning before the Chaos!!

Well its like 1 am and I am blogging because we're waiting up to get the battery charged on my new CAMERA!! I absolutely have no real idea on how to use it but I love it!! I've wanted a new camera forever and I asked David this year for Christmas if I could have one. I never expected to get the one that I did get. I was thinking I'd get one of those new sleek and small cameras but instead you see what I got. It came with an extra lens which will certainly come in handy this weekend at graduation. Which by the way I am ecstatic about. I can't believe that the time has finally come! Not only did he get me the camera he got me a carrying bag that way it would be safe and 2 4GB memory cards which hold like 1000 pictures...who knows if I'll ever get to take that many but I'll try. So as I said we're waiting up to take our first picture with the new camera. David is gonna have to practice so that the pictures are good on Saturday. I really should be going to bed because we have such a busy day tomorrow. We have errands to run in the morning then decorating for the Graduation Party and at 1 pm I have a hair appointment and then Rehearsal then Baccaluereate (no idea how to spell that) then after all the we have Aaron's ACU graduation to attend. Well Im going to go check on the camera battery and see how that is going and then get to bed for my eventful weekend!!

Busy, Busy & more Busy!!

Well it has been a busy week. It was my last week as a Student Teacher!! Let me just say I was excited to be done!! Aside from that my dad had surgery on Wednesday so our family entourage spent the day at the hospital with him and has been taking turns staying with him so my mom can continue working. I want to say THANK YOU for all the thoughts and prayers that were sent our way. We won't offically know what the protocol will be for his treatment but we're hoping for the best! We had our 2nd Doctors visit on Tuesday and we got to hear Baby Bruno's heartbeat....for those that don't know we call the baby "Baby Bruno Gus Gus" for the time being until we know for sure what it is. It started out kinda like an inside joke and now its more of a nickname. It was really exciting to hear the heartbeat it made all the worries of something could be going wrong just go away! It'd been a stressful time for me before the appointment with work, school and life and in the back of my head I was always thinking I hope Im not hurting Baby Bruno. We go back in on the 6th and from there we'll schedule our visit with the neo-natal specialist who will tell us the sex of the baby. I just want to clarify a miss understanding that David had...we won't get to know the sex of the baby on the 6th as David had told some people but most likely either a week or two after that depending on when they schedule us. Aside from all the fun David was able to complete work on the base of "The Anderson Grill" as he calls it. The first picture is from last week when he started working on it and a picture completed and then stained.

I think that it looks wonderful!! At first I was like huh? because I didn't understand exactly what he was making but I think its a GREAT idea. David says its his new hang out place and but soon it'll be the Family hangout place! It's going to have a roof and the whole nine yards so it'll be great once the baby comes since it'll be here for summer and we'll get to have "Baby Bruno" outside with us. Well it feels like I've been typing forever so anymore that I need to add I'll do later. Time for some lunch and relaxation as I feel like Im coming down with a head cold.
