Hello. It's me again.

It's time... for me to blog again.

It's been awhile.

I was too stressed to blog while I was in school.

But I have an announcement:

This girl....

is all done with school!!!

That's right.  I am unofficially a college graduate. :)  I say unofficial because I haven't received my diploma or walked at graduation yet.

It's been a long, stressful few years.  In a way it has gone fast, but it has also seemed that I would forever be   a college student.  I feel like my life was on hold for awhile.  I didn't have anytime for crafts, friends, and even family.  Now that I am done with school, I feel so much more relaxed and ready to do the things that I love again.

It still seems surreal that I am done, but then I drive by the university, see the lines of parked cars, and gleefully give thanks that it is them and not me who are in school.

I have only been out of school for a couple of weeks, but I have already been able to do some fun things.  The weekend after school was out I was able to go on a mini-vacation to Las Vegas with Chris.  While there we were able to hang out with some of Chris' cousins and also see the Phantom of The Opera.  We have both been wanting to see it for a long time.  It didn't disappoint.

Waiting for the show to start.

Ethan started first grade last week!

There was an awesome rainbow outside our window last night.

I had a chance to have a craft day with Chris' sisters and mom yesterday.  It was so nice to focus on fun and not homework.  We made these cute crafts for fall:

Anyways,  I look forward to reading everyone's blogs  and I hope you will enjoy seeing a glimpse of my life once again.
