Grad School

I'm sitting in bed working on my homework, but it is extremely hard to stay focused when I have to use the internet to do research. I keep drifting back to Facebook, or Yahoo, or my blog, or anything that doesn't have do with academics... what could take me less than an hour, ends up taking me 3! I'm so ready to be done!

Strawberry Picking

We went to Scott's Strawberry Farm on Saturday and picked our own strawberries. Well, I picked and Eden indulged.


Tailyre is a friend from church. She helped us pick strawberries and played with Eden.

We had fun!

We picked a lot!

Brock's graduation present

We desperately needed a new grill. So, we invested in a really nice one with Brock's graduation money. Steaks at our place... anyone interested?!?

Eden's new hobby: climbing through the doggie door. Rookie does it, so why can't she?

She loves to "share"

Her new pool and swimsuit. Summer is here!

Her stinky face. She loves running back and forth across our deck. We say "ready, set, go!" and she takes off. It's so cute.

Our first 10K!

Jessica and I survived our first 10K!

10K- well on our way!

My friend and I are training for a Memorial Day 10K (6.2 miles). We ran the (very hilly) course at 5:00am this morning in 1 hour and 3 minutes. Our goal is to complete it in less than an hour. 3 days till the race!!

Growing up

My little brother (well, not so little since he's 6'2") is graduating from high school tonight. I can't believe that it's been 6 years since I graduated! Where did the time go?? (Oh yeah, I moved to VA, finished college, got married, bought a house, started a job and had a baby) Steven has grown into a great leader and a man of integrity. He has won several awards for volleyball, accumulated over 20 hours of college credit, taken honors courses and been on several missions trips. It make me sad that I missed all of it!

He had a graduation party this past weekend with several of his friends. They had over 250 people come to the open house.
