Finals are here!

Dan is almost finished with classes for the semester and will be starting finals week tomorrow! As stressed as he is about his finals, and mostly his projects for studio, I know he is glad there is a light at the end of a much shorter tunnel. His largest final being his studio final. As a graphic design major, they have to complete their usual projects which are ridiculously time consuming, and then he has a 14 project aptitude test that will be part of his final, and the main part of his application to the graphic design program. Applying to the program is a big deal, and only happens once a year. He has shown me what he's working on, and I have decided that graphic design is definitely not for me -- there is no way I would even know what they are talking about!

Emmy is such a funny little girl, and is growing up so fast. She is talking so much now, and even putting words together in almost sentences. She is still such a bookworm, she reads books all day long. She is finally at the stage where she will read the book out loud to herself, it is hilarious to watch!


Me, well I'm just trying to hang on until Dan is finished with school. I know once finals are over we will have a little more time, and my schedule will have a bit more flexibility. Right now I am still trying to squeeze everything onto my already full plate. It is for a short time though, this too shall pass.


This past week we had family pictures taken. Those of you that know me well know how much I hate having my picture taken, so when my sister said she wanted to take them, I was reluctant. Celeste is so good with pictures though, and I love how they turned out. Of course I hate that I'm in them, but she did such a good job catching Emmy's cute faces and smiles. She picked the perfect location as well. It was fun to take the pictures. Here are a few of the good ones. I love the ones of Emmy and Dan especially. She is starting a photography business soon, and I know she will be very successful, she has a great eye for pictures.
