finals, FINALLY!

Well, we made it! Jon is taking his first of three finals right now. Come Monday afternoon, we will have officially made it through the first year of the MBA program. One down, one to go. It really has been a great year. I kept looking forward to the 2nd year because in theory it's supposed to be easier. However, Jon has taken on so many extra things, I think it has the potential to be even more crazy. He will be directing the Business Plan Competition, which is going to take up a lot of time. It will be busy, but it will all be worth it in the end. As I keep saying, we can do anything for a year! (when we started school, I said we can do anything for two years!)

Nice work Jon!

it came, it came!

With the summer move to Virgina quickly approaching (one month away!), the need for a double stroller has been heavy on my mind. I finally found the exact one I have been wanting on ebay, for a fraction of the regular price (thanks for the lead Tiff). Once I ordered it, I could not stop talking about it. I tracked the package almost daily to make sure it was on schedule. I came home from Logan early, just to make sure I was here for the delivery man. I watched out the window all morning waiting for the FedEx truck to make his way to my house! I was super excited. Unfortunately, Ethan didn't seem to share my same excitement. He was not too happy about posing with the big stroller box.





We are super excited about the move to VA. We can't wait for the experiences we will have and the memories we will make. I can't believe how soon we leave. In honor of DC, we frequent the park by our house with a Washington Monument look-a-like. It will have to do until we leave.

kids say the darndest...

We had an "Idol Gives Back" (which actually turned out to be pretty dumb) party this week. It was fun to hang out with Ashlie's girls.

The girls gave us quite the laugh. They just got a new dog and when I went to their house earlier in the day, he wasn't home.

We asked, "hey guys, where's your dog?"

They said, "at a sleepover...*gasp* with a girl!" Then very matter of fact Molly said, "They want her to have babies."


sadie, molly, ellie, hills, me

BTW: I'm bummed Michael Johns went home.

echo...

We dropped Jon off at school today, and
as we pulled away, some guy cut me off.
Obviously bugged, I said, " You Jerk".
A couple seconds later, from the backseat
I hear Ethan saying, "Jerk, Jerk, Jerk".
Wow, good example Mom.

trip to california

The boys and I went to San Diego last week. It was gorgeous. We felt bad for Jon who stayed home and studied while we relaxed on the beach.
