Grad school

I started my class for the semester last week. I a, taking a marriage and family class. Should be interesting and I really liked the professor. Since recently (in June) being married I think this class will be helpful. We are to read two books and share them with the class. I have picked out my books and dates. Now to get reading and take notes for my paper. Each paper has to be 5 to 7 pages to read or present to the class. S I will be starting that soon. I got both books on amazon kindle app for the IPad which is great. So that is what I will be working on this next month or so. Once I finish one book I will start the other.  So that is my update on school. I will post more about my class as time goes on.

Book Review: Where We Belong

I just finished reading Emily Griffin's book Where We Belong. This book is really great and is a fast read. The book goes between two characters, Marian and Kirby. Marian has a secret that she has kept for the last 18 years. She has not told a sole except for her Mother who does not talk about the subject with her or bring it up all that often. To learn what the subject is you should check out Emily Griffin's newest book. I give this book five stars.

Trip to Austin/ Fredricksburg

After Christmas, B and I decided to go down to Austin to spend time at his families home down there. IT was so much fun and we both had a great time just being out of Big D for a short bit. We started driving down on the 27th. We took an exotic long trip down there that lead us to go to Dublin, TX because B could not make the turn he wanted hahah. But it was so much fun to see the old Dublin Dr. Pepper plant and the store. We went in the store, but did not go on the tour, as we were not sure if it was open because of the holiday. After that we drove and had lunch at Dary Queen. I had the best Mint Oreo Blizzard. Blizzard's are the only food  I will have at DQ. It was fun. Then, we made our way down to their house. All and all the trip took us about 6 hours.

The next day, B and I went down to Fredricksburg, TX which was not a long drive. We went to see the Nemitz Museum, which is AMAZING. If you have not gone to see it you should go. It is all about World War 2 and I learned a lot that I did not know. Also, we had a great time walking around main street. We ate at Hondo's which was a great place to eat. Highly recommend that as well. They have everything on the menu.

We walked up and down the main street after the museum on our way back to the car. It was a lot of fun, and cold outside. We ha a great adventure together and are looking forward to more adventures.

New years 2013 recap

For new years, B and I decided to stay in, make our own pizza for dinner, and watch the ball drop on TV. All of the above accomplished. It was a stay in we must be old kind of night. However, on new years eve I would not want anything else. We both fell asleep after the ball in NY dropped. I did hear the fireworks going off which woke me up and watched some on TV, then fell back asleep. I know real exciting.... But, it was fun to do nothing after a busy holiday week with Caylx, Christmas, and a trip down to Austin for a few days.
