Shopping with Mom, etc...

So the dinosaur worked out okay, it didn't get too big but certainly bigger than when it started.

My mom took me shopping yesterday for my birthday which was so much fun! We ate at Olga's and later I found a skirt for the weddings that I must attend in August and a shirt for everyday wear. She got a couple shirts for herself too. After that we sat in Panera Bread for about 45 minutes just talking. It was good to spend quality time with my mom again, I love her! Thanks mom!

John is working this morning but later we'll start some major cleaning up of the apartment so we can get most everything moved out by Saturday. Hopefully we can also enjoy going to a movie or something fun tonight.

Beach Day!

Yesterday John and I went to Holland and had a really great time. The water was freezing though so we...well I...didn't do much swimming. John enjoyed jumping off the pier a couple times. He also fished but unfortunately didn't catch anything. We did get some sun though so now I have a little tan started. We also got some candy at the General Store, and John bought a dinosaur that is supposed to get really big when put in water. We'll see how it goes.

"That's a lot of rocks!"- little girl on the pier
"Yup, they stretch all the way to Minnesota." - her mom
"Wisconsin?" - me (though not to her face)

Birthday Celebration!

So my birthday was the other day. Besides having to be in class for six hours and take an exam it was a great day! John bought me the movie Norbit (Seth and Sarah you can borrow it when we move whenever you want) and also a BIG stuffed dog. I really had a good time.

Recently I got an A on my big paper for critical interpretation. Unfortunately, the quizzes in my broadcasting class have been suffering a little...B's but it should be A's since it's open book. Oh well. I'm excited for school to be done, I'm ready to enjoy the summer.
