Easter

We are amazing parents and did nothing for our child for Easter. The weekend before, Cal participated in an egg hunt over at Aunt Fran's and scored some money filled eggs that will go toward funding his Harvard education. (Yes, I am living vicariously through my tiny child.)

I had briefly entertained the idea of taking him to the mall and having his pic taken w/the Easter Bunny, but then was like "That has absolutely nothing to do w/Easter and a giant bunny is super creepy." So that idea lasted a mini second.

I did go and see my wonderful mother play the organ at church so that was quite fun. She did an amazing job and some of those songs were Boring (capital B necessary) so they needed some great accompaniment. My mother is just a phenomenal lady in general. What can I say.

Cal did get an Easter basket from his other grandma and aunt so that was fun. He liked cracking the plastic eggs open but had zero interest in what was inside. Eh. He's 1.

In other news, Curtis is graduating from the academy May 15th. He has been working very hard and we are super proud of him. I know he will be glad to have this grueling nonsense over with. And he is very handsome in his uniform.

My oldest sister came into town last week and this week my next oldest sister is here with her family so that has been very fun. I love having my sissies around! I do wish I got to see them more often but definitely enjoy kicking it with them while they are here.

Much to accomplish today.

Back to school

After 8 million years of being out of high school and much struggling to get through my Associates degree (1 final class in progress), I am finally ready to start at a 4 year university. Holy cracker jack.

I got my acceptance letter from UNLV a few weeks ago and just signed up for my little orientation day. I am hoping there are some folks older than I there so I don't have to be the oldest goat trying to learn something.

I can officially start in the summer but if I don't pass this stupid math class I am taking now, I will probably have to wait until fall. Blah. I guess one more semester won't hurt since 900 have passed already. What's another?

I was just reading my little requirement sheet and I have to take a foreign language. I'm kind of thrilled about this. I feel like, should I take French since I took it in high school and love the idea of learning more, or perhaps German so I can banter back and forth w/Curtis? Hmm. Then there is Latin, which also intrigues me, and also my cute mommy took it. Smart as a whip little mommy.

I realize it will probably take me 65 semesters to finish but oh well. I need to get my dang Bachelors Degree. (capitalized? No? Yes?) Too bad I couldn't pull my life together enough and go to Harvard like I wanted to all my life. But that was the point of stopping there on our honeymoon - I can sure say I went to Harvard! Yeah!

Okay, must take my stupid math test. Ralph.
