word: finals.

*catch up*

We spent Easter in Dallas with my Mama and Daddy and had by far one of the best holidays together ever. The only thing missing were Aly and Matt. I can't wait to see Aly in July and we will all (6 of us) be back together again in Indiana at Christmas. Since returning from Easter, we have both in the books hard. My finals are now and David's will be next week. We can't wait to finish out this semester/quarter and enjoy our time off together before summer school!

I hate finals. Everything about the word is dark. Pressure is built in and anxiousness carried out.

Finals.

Ok, really, it isn't that bad... I only have three more 'finals' to go and I will be free as a jay bird for three weeks before summer school starts! I can't wait!! I don't even know what I am going to do with myself..... well, actually I have a good clue. I have two books (real ones, not audio) that I want to read - for pleasure. I am probably going to up my workouts to two a day! YA! As well as DO ANYTHING I WANT. :) I might as well be honest right? This too shall pass and I will be happily on my 'break' before you know it. Naturally, I gave up caffeine this year and have been going strong with that - so decaf tea is what will get me through these next couple of late nights. Talk about mental problem right? Decaf tea... helping me stay awake! BAHA!

David is rocking the world of accounting one class at a time. I am outwardly over the top jealous of his grades and ability to be so stinkin' SMART! Just kidding. I am more proud than anyone on the planet of seriously, how ridiculously smart he is. :) He is in his junior year, and taking his intermediate accounting courses right now. Most people go in scared straight and praying for a 'C' - not David. He is killing these classes with an 'A' or better. Yes, I said or better - because if there was something higher - he would get it! He has already registered for his summer and fall classes. Next summer he will *hopefully* have an internship in Shreveport so we can carpool to work everyday. Summer 2012 will be his last quarter of his undergrad courses, and next fall (yes, just one year from now) he will begin his graduate courses. Right now, his tentative graduation date is August 2013. How incredible is that? Depending on class availabilities it could be pushed back a quarter - but who cares! He will be done sooner than later! You have NO idea how proud I am of my hubby. He rocks my socks off just thinking about all his accomplishments. I am beyond blessed to have him as my true companion.

A real reality check is that next fall I will be applying to law school. Yikes. Although I am doing well in my graduate work and studying like a crazy person for the LSAT - I am still nervous. I know wherever God wants me to attend school - He will open the doors to make all the details fall into place. We are claiming that. Of course there is a strong pull to move back to Dallas, but we are keeping our options open and will move forward from there... that makes me excited!
