New Pictures!


Emma and I like to have pictures made with pretty flowers! My all-time favorite hydrangea in my favorite shade. Emma does get a little distracted during long photo sessions! It's a little hard to get both of us looking good in one frame!


Emma likes to walk around on the balcony. She loves being free from her leash! She looks around at the cars and people below and gets plenty of fresh air. She doesn't get to go out for long on the balcony now though since it's so hot. Poor little thing just has too much fur to live in Auburn during the summer. She's been in Florence for a week already and I'll finally get to see her again Thursday. I have talked to her on the phone though! :)


My sweet Grandaddy turned 90 on June 17. He is such a wonderful man and I am proud to be his granddaughter. I can't wait to see him over the 4th of July weekend! I'm so glad Grandaddy is doing better. He's had a rough few months and I pray that he accepts his new limitations and continues to improve.


One of my oldest friends, Tiffany, married her fiance, Will, this past weekend in Tuscalooserville, AKA Tuscaloosa to those of you who sport crimson. This picture was made right after we showed her the practice bouquet and veil made from ribbons from her shower gifts. She carried the bouquet and wore the veil for the rehearsal on Friday night. There will be more wedding weekend pictures later.


Finally, a picture of me at the rehearsal dinner made by the bride. I guess the sunburn did pay off since I don't look quite as pale as a sheet of paper!

Sunburned

Today, in between classes, I went to the pool and laid out. Fast forward about an hour and I'm quite sunburned. I didn't think I was that burnt until I went to class and saw myself under the classroom lights. Hopefully it will feel better tomorrow and will turn into a little bit of a tan instead of just peeling off. I really want to have a little color for Tiffany's wedding.

On another note, I only have this week and next before the worst of summer school is over. I can't wait!

The Week(s) Ahead

I made it through my test today and turning in my project. I think I could have done better on the test, but I'm satisfied with how I think I did based on the amount of time I had to study and everything else I had going on.

The Week(s) Ahead:
  1. Cost Accounting test Thursday 6/
  2. Strategic Management test Tuesday 6/16
  3. AIS test Tuesday 6/16
  4. AIS Excel Project Wednesday 6/17
  5. Strategic Management test Tuesday 6/23
  6. Cost Accounting test part 1 Tuesday 6/23
  7. Cost Accounting test part 2 Wednesday 6/24
  8. AIS Final Friday 6/26
  9. Tiffany and Will's Wedding Weekend Friday & Saturday 6/26 & 27
Plus various projects and groupwork worked in between all of this.

I'm so ready for July when I only have 1.5 hours of class a day, four days a week. I'm hoping those five weeks will be a breeze!

I have got to go so I can start getting ready to conquer that list!

One Word

Waren. As in Waren Sports Supply. They are a fictional company in my Accounting Information Systems class where we have to manually take about twenty transactions completely through the Accounting cycle. It's not that bad, but it's quite a pain! It's due Monday in class (3PM) and I still have quite a bit to go. I've been working on it almost all afternoon without much of a break (dinner only, really). I've gotten a lot done, but not as much as I wanted to since my goal was to finish everything tonight.

I'm going to get back to it, but I really am trying to take time out to update!

P.S.--Emma's 1st birthday was yesterday. I took pictures, but haven't downloaded them yet!

Two Weeks Down, Three To Go

Today marked the end of our second week of the first mini-term. Only three weeks to go! The day after my last final on June 26, my very near and dear friend, Tiffany, will be walking down the isle to become Mrs. William Nevin! I'm so glad I'll be able to stand with her while she and Will are starting their new life together! My dress finally arrived yesterday, about a month late, so it's seeming more and more real that they are finally getting married!

School is very busy and I'm quite tired of it already, but I know it will be worth it when I walk across the stage in the coliseum on August 10. I'm really glad that I only have one class that only meets four days a week for my June classes. I plan to enjoy my four-day weekends and hopefully visit my family at least a couple of times.

I've got a bunch of work to do tonight, so I better go, but I just wanted to update with what's on my mind!
