Light at the end...

today i just realized that the last class of my b.a. is on friday. the last one. that is pretty trippy. i have wanted to finish my degree for ten years. now that i am almost finished i don't know what i have to strive for. :O

i am so excited for chiristmas break i could just spit. we are going to riv for the holiday. the whole fam damily will be at my mom's house. p.w. and the BIL, my mom and stepdad, his three daughters and my papa. i haven't had christmas with my papa in years. he makes things homey, wherever he is.

it is time...

school has started again and, in theory, this is the final stretch for john and i both. we have been working for so long to get finished with school, we don't really know what to do next. it is really strange for us.

all we know is we need to travel. and often. mostly to visit my sister and mikey. we absolutely love hanging with them and we must do it more often.

we just spent the most excellent weekend with becky and mike. they met us in salt lake for labor day. i was so excited, they were able to come and watch me test for my blue belt. and i was even able to talk them both into putting on gis and rolling. it was so wonderful to see her enjoy something of mine. while i was testing, i heard her laughing and it was just like the "old days."

ahh sisters are the best!
