Upcoming Adventures

             Hooray for finals being over! I hope everyone survived. Gratefully, I will not have to take anymore finals during my undergraduate career. Next semester, I have two portfolios to do, one for my elementary education degree and one for my special education degree. I swear May 4th can not come soon enough! Graduation will be a bittersweet event.
            There hasn't been anything super new to announce, but there will be! There are some big things coming up. Tara (my very best college friend) is coming home from her mission on Tuesday! That is only 5 days away! I am absolutely ecstatic! We have my family Christmas party coming up, our very first Christmas as a married couple, Nate's last Christmas phone call (He gets home at the end of May...yay!) and my 22nd birthday and of course, welcoming in the new year! Phew! That is a lot. I love the Holiday season. I love the feeling of the season.
          I finished my Kindergarten practicum last Friday, and it light of the terrible shooting event that occurred today, I am very grateful for the safety of the people in my life that I love, and my heart goes out to those families who lost loved ones today in Connecticut. I watched the news at my parents house, and I was so grateful to be in a safe, warm home knowing those I love are safe. It's sad that things like this happen.
            Stay updated for lots of posts over the break. I am likely to become incredibly bored with Zach working a lot and may need to have regular rants, and who knows, I may post something actually worth reading ;)
Here's to the Holidays! Enjoy!
