Justin and I are sitting at our kitchen bar both doing homework. Okay, I guess I'm doing homework, becoming familiar with blogs so I can do one as a teacher .. :)
We have now been married for over a month! It's been a blast and yet so busy.
The time has flown by, I still have not officially changed my name, am insuranceless, and we're just starting to send out our thank yous to all those who have been so generous.

So, you may ask, what have we been doing...? --let me update you

Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays:
5:30 am - the alarm goes off!
By 6 am, Justin is working out at Airforce PT, and I'm on my own jog to the temple and back - okay, some mornings I sleep in til 7
By the time Justin gets back from PT, I've showered, read some scriptures, gotten ready or made breakfast
8:00Am - suppose to have eaten breakfast, packed the lunch and be ready to leave the house so as not to be late for our 8:30 classes, eh, but we're definitely late sometimes
Justin has classes all day
I have class at 8:30, then time to study or work at GEAR UP til 11:30

11:30 - We dance together in the Intermediate Western Swing Class! Yep, we're learning some sweet moves and lifts!
12:30 Justin has Airforce class and I head home

The afternoons vary, but we usually meet up around 5, in time to fix dinner, which we take turns they vary by; Mondays = GEAR UP, Flag Football at 5:30 and then FHE, Wednesdays = Melissa's night class from 4-6:30 and Justin's study group from 7-9 or we sometimes skip and go play softball with our ward, and Fridays = catch up with some fun before Melissa goes to Golden Corral

Tuesdays and Thursdays - Sleep in! til 7am on Tuesdays, Thursdays is Melissa's GEAR UP meeting at 7
Institute - Old Testament at 8am
Then off to the Library to study for a bit together -
Melissa has two classes while Justin does homework all day!

Afternoons fairly similar to other days
Depending on school load, some late nights studying at the kitchen bar might happen - like tonight.

We find time to have fun and have really enjoyed the regular and healthy eating we are doing since being married. We feel we haven't eaten this good in a long time. :) Just one of the MANY perks to being married.

Saturdays
Really sleep in!! - most of the time,
Study, do homework,
Try to catch up on life (such as all those things we haven't done), watch football and find fun

Sundays
Church at 9 am - which is good that it gets us out of bed
Enjoy Lunch together
visit family or friends
suppose to be writing thank yous ... hmmm, this turns into other good things
We've started a budget, hung up pictures in our apt, and invited neighbors over for dinner

Then, Monday starts again!

Engineering Lab vs. Hawaii

It's Friday night of Spring Break and we are sitting in the Engineering lab ...... Justin watching March Madness and me blogging.  Some people may think it's a little on the boring side, but I have to say we are both quite enjoying ourselves.  As Spring Break approached we were under the impression that we just might be welcoming our baby boy sooner than later. On March 6th, I was dilated to a 2 and 70% effaced..... the Dr said he could be here in 2-3 days or 2 weeks. Justin and I had a couple of sleepless nights after hearing this. Jumping at any sign of labor -- makes me laugh now.  The days have passed by with few contractions and no real progress. I have to say my emotions have been all over. At times I so want to be done being pregnant and have this little boy in my arms and then the next minute I am soaking up the time Justin and I have left to easily (well 9 months pregnant easily) hop on the motorcycle for a ride up town. After reading, learning, and practi

Happy Halloween

Thanks to the Schmidt pumpkin patch  I have several cute little pumpkins I've always wanted and thanks to the Daniels party for the cute carved pumpkins that really set the Halloween tone! The Schmidt Sisters!  October 23rd we had the annual Grandpa Jess Birthday Party get together! I felt like it had been forever since the Daniels family had been together.  Not enough catching up happened for me, but it was sure fun to be around family and carve pumpkins. It helped me start to get into the Halloween spirit. Bummer that I did not take pictures at the party. But these pumpkins made me smile each day I saw them on our porch. Halloween was so much fun when you were a kid, but as I have aged the holiday has lost it's excitement. For Halloween this year we happened to be in Salt Lake with the Schmidts. Justin was presenting his IHC idea and I had the day to myself. The Schmidt family gathered at the pumpkin patch for pictures before the night of trick or treating would

The Park - 11 month old fun

Going to the park with Sam has always been enjoyable, but lately it has become a lot more fun! Sam is a thrill seeker for sure! He loves going down the slide head first! Sam screams when we walk away from the swing - He loves swinging! He loves when we peep through the different holes Yes, he is crawling right to the slide, letting himself down head first
