Toys & Finals

So... it's finals time again. Geeze. I feel like it's ALWAYS finals time.

We've been studying like fiends and also trying to get into the Christmas spirit.

We're been listening to cheezy Christmas music on Pandora and I absolutely have been

loving it!!

Good news. I took a big step and ordered myself an iPad earlier this week. It was so exciting anf it actually arrived today! We're finally taking a break from studying while we eat some chili that I just made, and I'm finally gonna get to play with it for a few minutes. YAY!!!

I hope everyone is having a fantastic December and is getting ready for all of this Holiday cheer.

I'll be home with my boys in just 1 week!

I'll leave you with this awesome video...

Unit 2 Completed!!

Hello friends!!

It's been a while, but I've got good news. I've successfully completed Unit 2 of phase I of PA school! What a relief. Only 3 more units in phase I. It feels like forever, but it's really just 8 more months on campus in Carbondale. Thank the good lord!

Testing ended on Wednesday afternoon (3 long days of testing). We celebrated a birthday and the end of finals that night, and then partook of some retail therapy all day Thursday, before heading home for a week off. I am currently reading a book that has NOTHING to do with school and also watching all kinds of movies. Life is wonderful again. :) Here are some pics of Wednesday night's fun.

Fujiyama Japanese Steak House in Carbondale. Our grill guy rocked. He threw chicken at me and I caught it in my mouth (on the second try!)

Can you see the Mickey in my rice? I'm corny. I know. It must be really obvious, cause the cook definitely noticed!

Pretty PA ladies :)

Drunken roomies. This was at the Blue Martin - a really cute martini bar in Carbondale. Loved this place. Really tasty drinks.

After this we went next door to the gay bar named Traz (I think this is the name) and danced like crazy people until after 1am. It was pretty fantastic. There was even karaoke!
