Still busy, story of our lives

Quick update, because it's been a while since I've last posted.

The weather is absolutely beautiful lately. Finally, Phoenix decided to give into Fall's weather. Good thing too because I was SO done with summer.

We tore up the side yard in the front, and put in some beautiful plants. It looks SO much better than what it was. Feels more like ours now too. But seeing these pictures make me realize how nasty the brick walls and side of the house look. I'll add that to the list.

Last weekend we went to Flagstaff for the NAU Shrine of the Ages Alumni reunion and had a blast. I've kind of gotten out of the habit of taking pictures, so I don't have any. Ooopsies :o) But it was a blast. The alumni choir sang the National Anthem at the Homecoming game, and it was actually pretty good. That's saying something. I mean, there were 150+ people singing in a sports dome. Not exactly the best of circumstances for good sound. But I think it was pretty good. Of course the weekend would not be complete without an alumni concert. We sang together with the current Shrine and mamasita! It was like sweet honey to my ears. The last time I sang in a choir that good was...well, when I was IN Shrine in college! Of course some of the alumni were um...aged (I think 84 was the oldest?) and their vibrato was...wide...to say the least. HOWEVER, it's a small thing to overlook when sitting next to 4 current Shrine members. Those of you from NAU know what I'm talking about. Other than the concert, all we did was eat. I mean, what else is there to do in Flagstaff? We went to Beaver Street Brewery, Hiro's Sushi, The Lumberyard, Crystal Creek Sandwich Co., and other places I'm sure. Seriously, the whole weekend was about food. And I always feel a little nostalgic when visiting Flagstaff. Afterall, that is where I met the love of my life...(dang we were skinny).

Not to much else going on. I take that back. There's a LOT going on here, but it's no different than reported before. I'm still working part time at Phoenix Christian, going to USC full time, selling Scentsy, doing worship team at church, and working at my school internship. Patrick is working and taking classes as well. So we're busy, there's no doubt about that. But if all goes according to plan, this will only continue until September when I graduate. I'm really looking forward to having 1 job, this juggling schedules is getting old pretty fast. Worth the sacrifice though.

I hope this post finds you healthy, happy and loving life. Until next time!
