Day 38 and Unpacking

October 4, 2009

We both got home late from our trips, and had lots of unpacking to do. We chose the "dump it at once, and organize it later" strategy. We were tired.

Day 37 and Our Moms

October 3, 2009

Yes, we love our moms, and we loved going home to visit them for the weekend.
Somewhere in a cardboard box in the attic of my house, lies a homemade, construction paper card that I made for my mom in Pre-K. The front of it has a flower (with a cartoon face of course) that I colored all by myself. The inside reads something like this:
If moms were like flowers on a sunny summer day,
I'd pick you in a minute if I could have my way!
Still holds true after all of these years :)

Day 36 The Road Trips Home

Bailey and I both traveled to our hometowns, Mineola and Conroe, respectively, this weekend. Both of us are going to our alma mater's Homecoming football game, too! We're both excited to spend time with our families and friends! This morning we got up before work and school, packed up and took a picture before saying our goodbyes.
Oh home sweet home :)

Day 35 and The Victory Dance

This week, collectively we had four tests, two projects, a quiz and lots of homework due.... it's been a long five days. The fact that we made it through is something to celebrate!

Day 34 and the Askew's Table

September 30, 2009

The Askew's have a really cool, dark wooden table that we all love to gather around and chit chat before and after LIFE group. Bailey was talking to somebody about logarithms and I was trying to pay attention and take a picture at the same time.

Day 33 and the Terry Banquet

September 29, 2009

Bailey and I discovered soon after we met that we were both Terry Scholars. The Terry Scholarship is huge a blessing in our lives, and we'll always be so grateful for it. In the fall we all meet at a dinner banquet and in the spring, a picnic. It's so nice having a companion at all of these semi-awkward events!

(Note: This is a pretty fancy-smancy event, so I'd like to point that we're poised and our pinkies are up as we drink our punch!)
haha

Day 32 and the Special Delivery

September 28, 2009

The doorbell rang today,
with flowers from someone far away.
Jeff sent Bailey roses,
right under our noses
what a fun surprise for the day!
