Spring Break Woot Woot!

At 2:45 p.m. today, my spring break officially began... and I am super excited! Unfortunately though, I have no real plans for the week (e.g. Florida, Cali, or beyond).... you know I do have a wedding to save for. But none the less.... its spring break and I don't have to get up at 5:10 a.m. for 9 whole days!!
Basically my plans are to lay around, grade papers, shop at Lighthouse Place w/ a friend from school, stop by school to put up a new bulletin board and organize somethings, travel back to L-town for Easter, and get fitted for my wedding dress. Not that exciting of a week, but I'm glad to have it.
As for now, I'm watching the Boilers and hoping for a W.
Happy Spring!

p.s. Rox and El, I totally wish I could have been with you guys tonight in Indy. El, I hope you kept tabs on her.... we know how she gets! "Catsticks!" :)

This One is for you Kels!

So I haven't blogged in awhile... and sadly enough, its because there really is not much going on for us, at least nothing exciting enough to share with the world of bloggers.
I know, I know... not a great way to start off your blog. I teach 2nd grade and we recently learned how to write paragraphs and I taught 7 and 8 year olds that the first sentence of your paragraph should be interesting, an attention grabber, ironic huh? Sorry!
However, I feel compelled to blog since my future sister-in-law told me last weekend... "When are you going to update your blog?" So... as the heading states this ones for you Kels! And again, sorry its so dull.
But since you are here, I'll fill you in on the past few weeks.
We went home last weekend to meet with the pastor that is going to be marrying us. While we were there we were able to enjoy wonderful campus prices at Jake's w/ some friends. We've also been able to spend some time with my parents, brother, his girlfriend, and her two little ones. (Who we recently asked to be our flower girl and ring bearer.. or as Hunter calls it "ring man".) We saw them in L-town and then the weekend before we went over to the Blue Chip Casino... and lost :( Nothing too bad to break the bank or anything, but a loss is a loss!
Really that's all that has been going on around here. We're thinking about heading up to a northern suburb tomorrow to, get this..... go grocery shopping (and maybe see a movie). I told you exciting, exciting!
Maybe that is a desperate cry to all of our friends out there to come and visit us and liven us up a little!! You are always welcome! However, one of Alex's really good friends is moving up here at the beginning April, so we are super excited about that!
I guess no news is good news.
Hope everyone is enjoying this wonderful weather we have been having and hopefully the snow predicted for the weekend makes a sharp turn north. *Here's to hoping!*
