Happenings

The end of the semester is creeping up closer and closer... it is apparent in the weather, amount of school work increasing, and my lack of drive to do any of it.
I have about 3 different projects that I need to complete before finals week and all of them are at step 0 (haven't started), and it is getting more stressful each day that I put it off again because then I have even less time to finish them all.
Oh Well. :)

Other than the final projects Chad and I are just keeping busy with school and work. I am starting to feel a little bit better, there was a 3 day streak where I kept all my food down.... the only bad thing is that it only lasted 3 days.
But as of yesterday I am past the first trimester so that means that I should be instantly better now... not completely true.

When the cold weather starts the ability and desire to do/go to school drops about as fast as the thermometer, it's just hard to do school work when sitting at your kitchen table with shoes and coat on then all the sudden your fingers can't bend cause they are frozen. Not so productive in studying.... #1 downfall of living in a trailer..... so so so cold....also being so so so cheap to not turn our heater up :)

Its beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and we can't wait! Yet another factor playing in on the distraction away from school... Christmas time is no homework time.
Also it is almost Chad's Birthday.

That's all my random comment squished into one post.

Love,

Get Better Soon Red Ranger

My little brother is going through a tough surgery right now and just wanted to give him a little shout out and to tell him to come home soon.

Here are a few pictures of him and his awesomeness.

We Love you Dallin Paul Whitney Smith Osborn. Come home soon.

This picture is when we found the Red Ranger in China.... I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get a picture with the Chinese Red Ranger.

Big News

I will just let the picture speak for itself....

We will see this little bean around May 24.

Crimson Trail

For Labor Day we decided to hike up Crimson Trail which is up Logan Canyon. We got up at about 8 and started our adventure. The Gardners , Chet and Annaliese, came with us.
It was a beautiful day, I love hiking.

Here we are at the beginning of the hike.Taking a rest in the middle, once we finally made it to the top!

A cool spot to take a picture :)

Later that afternoon we had to live up to the day and rest from our "Labors" So we took a good nap, in place of doing our home work.... oops :)

The 80's Dance

For W.O.W (Week of Welcome) up at USU they had an 80's dance. And being the cool married couple that we are we didn't have anything else going on so we decided to take part.
It was pretty rad... Chad and I both dressed up with a variety of clothing that I had adopted over the years.
Chad wore one of my tie die shirts along with some of my running tight that were previously my older brothers (Toph remember the black tights with blue and white stripe?) Along with some of my runny shorts and a head band. He looked pretty hott not going to lie :) It was so funny
My outfit wasn't quite as exciting but I made up for it with my big hair and bright makeup.

All in all the night was a hit with the millions of people 80's music videos and lots of sweaty people.

We represented all the married couples at USU, for I am pretty sure we were the only ones there. :)

Rock on!

Back to School to School to School

We are officially back in the real world, after about 6 months of play time we are back in the swing of things.
Chad and I are both starting our last year of our undergraduate schooling. And things are looking good. I have a pretty chill semester, I don't have any math courses, I finished all of them up last year. So I have only 13 credits of Education courses.... good news not to many intensive assignments... bad new lots of busy work... I think I would rather have Math classes.
Chad on the other has as a very intensive semester. He is taking 19 credits and none of them are show up and pass classes. So all sympathy goes out to him this year :)
Work has been keeping me busy for the past few weeks, for some reason all the students who needed a math class forgot to take the placement exam the past 3 months where there was plenty of time for us to help them. Instead the all remembered last week and this week that they need to take the Placement Exam and they haven't had Math of 4-5 years, and they HAVE to have this class or they won't graduate/getting in their program/live.... Fun times.

Overall life is good. We are moved into our new house. Trailer #165 :) Its a gem. More updates later.

Here are some pictures of us going to school :) Happy first week of school!

Confession...

I just had a good cry after looking at pictures of my babies in China...
I miss them so much.
I posted a few pictures so you can see the cute faces that I love.

I miss you my little trouble makers
Love Teacher JoAnna
