FINISHED!!

I'm done!!! I'm officially a senior. As of 8:50 this morning I took my last final and continued to come home and audit for my CLASS RING! It's so exciting. I am now bored out of my mind though because no one else is done and therefore everyone wants me to be quiet. I have since vacuumed my room, done the dishes, took out the trash, cleaned my dresser drawers, and browsed the Internet. I have PT at 5pm this afternoon and again on Thursday at 5 but I might cancel that one and go home for a few days...we will see. My countdown has begun.

Obviously mine will say '09, not '81




NINE DAYS UNTIL DISNEY WORLD:
I can hardly wait. For those of you who don't know, Jordan's father is kind enough to fly and lodge me, Megan, Kimberly, Cheslea and of course Jordan to Disney World for Jordan's birthday! We are leaving on the 15th and coming home on the 21st. We plan on going to Epcot, Universal, Magic Kingdom and one other park. We also plan to have a few days of relaxing at the pool of our hotel. We are staying at the Hard Rock of Orlando for a few nights then the Buena Vista Palace rest of the time. I am sooo excited. Mr. Pace is amazing! : )

EIGHTEEN DAYS UNTIL WEDDING:
After I get home from Disney on the 21st I will have three days before Colleen and Jame's Wedding. My bridesmaid dress came in but it is in Moulton so the girls (Colleen & Pamela) are going to get it while I am gone. Her wedding is on the 24th of May and I am so excited for that as well. This is my first wedding to be in besides my sisters. I am also reading the scripture for the ceremony which is exciting!

Our Dresses

TWO-HUNDRED & TWENTY-THREE DAYS UNTIL STUDENT TEACHING:

I have also begun a countdown to how many days until my student teaching will begin. I look forward to actually having my own classroom (kinda) and actually starting to teach. And I mean, hopefully I will finally be able to be in the same town as Justin which also makes me very happy.

I miss you

This is for both my grandpas. I love them very much and they both have been on my mind a lot lately. I wish I would have been able to be blessed with 21 years with both of them. I miss them very much.


You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
You'd hold me close in your arms
I loved the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me
I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you,I miss you


You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm living out my dream
Oh how I wish you could see
Everything that's happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying by too fast

I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in awhile
And even though its different now
You're still here somehow
My heart wont let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, I miss you.

I know you're in a better place, yeah
But I wish that I could see your face, oh
I know you're where you need to be
Even though it's not here with me
I miss you.



I MISS YOU TWO. I KNOW I'M STILL YALL'S LITTLE ANGEL. LOOK AFTER ME.

Packed Full

Friday I went back to Lobb to discuss my MRI. He said that because my back vertebrae have been shattered in the past that my disc aren't healthy and have herniated. NO FUN! But good news I start PT next Monday. Hopefully that will work and I will be like a new person!! Friday night, me, Justin, Carla, kason, pamela and colleen stayed up till 2am getting ready for Ragans baby shower on Saturday morning.
As you can imagine Saturday 8 am came way to fast. Saturday was such a fun busy day! The shower I feel was a success and Ragan seemed to enjoy it and in the end that's all that really matters. It was a lot of fun and I thought everything ended up looking beautiful! We couldn't have put on the shower without Pamela and Colleen helping me as much as they did. They are amazing friends. I owe them big time! After the shower, I met Justin and some of his friends on campus and we went and watched Kason step off then went to the Maroon and White game.

Our weekend was packed full and so much fun. Thankfully I don't have a very busy week and can catch up on some sleep I didn't get this past weekend. My bug project is due on Wednesday and today me and Pamela finished catching my bugs. The only thing I have left to do is add the label to each bug, which I plan on watching a movie and writing labels at the same time! : )


I cant believe we are almost done with school. It feels so weird to not have anything due tomorrow yet soo relaxing. I uploaded all my baby shower/football pictures onto an album off of my Project 365 link so they are all there.



Overall this weekend was a blast! I thoroughly enjoyed every part of it. Thank you to everyone who was able to share it with me!!

Back

So this morning I went to Dr. Kelly Lobb and discussed my back issues. I have been scheduled for an MRI on Thursday morning at 8am. Friday afternoon at 4pm I will be meeting back with him to discuss our future actions regarding my back. He seemed very knowledgeable and was very helpful.

This past weekend was Justins bday and Kimbos bday party. We had alot of fun. Ive uploaded a whole album of pictures on my Project 365 link. I haven't been blogging lately. I have just been so busy and overloaded with the end of the semester....

check out the new pictures!! : )
