I just got back from a weekend in Kernville (well, Wofford Heights really) with Jeff and his family. I hitched a ride with the Mitas family (Jeff's cousins and their adorable children) on Friday night after class. I even got to watch one of Andrew's tee-ball games before we left town...TOO cute! The weather this week had been crazy, and I should have packed for crummy weather, but my mind was determined that it was going to be in the 70's and sunny and packed accordingly. WRONG! It was raining and windy and overcast the entire time. There was even snow on the Grapevine on the way up. Luckily I had time before we left town to stop at Target to buy cheap shoes so at least I had something other than flip flops to wear. I also found it difficult to sleep up there because it was so quiet. Sad that I need the sounds of sirens, helicopters or street racing to fall asleep!
The weekend was filled with white water rafting and quad riding, while I stayed behind and studied. Of course, I didn't get as much done as I had planned (there's a shocker). We did see Indiana Jones, and made funnel cakes for breakfast though...I thought of you, Mom! :) We got back late last night so I was the Mitas' first house guest and spent the night on the couch. I can't remember the last time I've woken up to the sounds of tip-toeing and soft little whispers of..."I think she's moving!" :) Wish I had taken pictures, but in my usual fashion, I didn't. Oh well. Even though I wasn't as productive as I would have liked, it was still good to get away from here for a while and of course, to see Jeff. He'll be down here in a few weeks to help me move (more on this some other time when I have more free time to spare), but it's still always difficult to say good-bye. Just what is left now...2 years and almost only 3 months!
Thursday was our DPT Sports Day. We came out doing the dance/song/chant from the movie "Remember the Titans." I'll try to get a copy of the video to post. We're not sure who won...each of the classes won one of the 3 events. I guess I should mention that the event we did win, we won by default when the other two classes were disqualified for cheating. But if they had also been disqualified for the cheating they did in one of the other events, we would have won that one also. There was a Taco Man cooking the most AMAZING tacos I have ever eaten. I think we should hire him for our next party! Best carne asada I've ever had! The whole day was cut short due to the weird weather I mentioned before. Heavy downpours of rain, hail, lightening/thunder storms nearby (within 2 miles), and 2 tornadoes. Yes, tornadoes. I thought I didn't live in Kansas!
Anyway, there's more studying to do. Hope everyone enjoyed their day off, and maybe had a BBQ despite the lack of sunny weather. I can't believe I only have 2 more weeks of classes before finals. Scary how the time flies! Man I can't wait for that week-long break though! Later all!

2 years and almost 3 months! Huh either I don't know what you are talking about, or someone cant count.
...someone can't count :( It just FEELS like it should be only 3 months instead of 4 though!
OOhhhh, you two are so cute, fighting about how long you've been together! :) I wish we'd been up there with you guys this weekend! We missed you! Glad you had a good time.
