I'm an Aunt Again!!!!

Well, very early this morning at 12:45 I became an Aunt again!!!! My new niece's name is Olivia Edith White, which is extra special because my Grandmother's name was Edith. She was 5lbs. 10oz. and 19.5in. long. Here are a few pictures. Enjoy!

Back at School

I am now back at school. I got back around 1:30 this afternoon. Since being back, I have been really busy getting ready for classes to start tomorrow. I am excited about this semester, but I think it is going to be quite challenging. The classes for this semester are Anatomy & Physiology II with a lab, American Literature, Global Agriculture, Nutrition, and a Supplemental Instruction Lab (which is like a big study group) for Anatomy & Physiology. Tuesdays and Thursdays are definitely going to be my busy days this semester, which is a lot different than normal. I am a little concerned about this because classes are a lot longer on Tuesdays & Thursdays. It is usually the opposite of this set up so it will be interesting to see how things go. I will try to do a better job keeping you updated on how things are going this semester!

Another big thing that happened today was I got a pet betta fish. I named him Squirt. He is beautiful with red and blue coloring. Here are a few pictures.

Visit with Eubanks and End of Christmas Break

For the last week, I have been visiting some very good friends of mine. I have had so much fun. They have four kids that are a lot of fun and absolutely adorable. Two of the kids are twins who are only about 2 1/2 months old. They are so cute! Their two older siblings are a lot of fun to play with. After this week, I now understand more of what it is like to be a parent of four young children. I fed and held the twins, played with the older two, helped around the house, made dinner one night, and had a blast doing all of this, even though it was a lot of work. I have been friends with this family since I was in High School and I am so glad I got to see them. This was also a big trip for me because it was the first long road trip that I have taken by myself. It went well and I didn't get lost, which is great for me. Here are some pictures! Enjoy!










This trip to visit these friends was unfortunately the last big event before I go back to school. Classes start on Tuesday, so I will return to school on either Sunday or Monday. I can't believe how fast this break has gone by. It seems like I just came home for Christmas Break and now it is over with. I have had a great break doing so many things like spending time with family and friends, shopping, sleeping, watching movies, and just being lazy. I am ready and somewhat excited about going back to school, but I am definitely not looking forward to going back to studying and doing homework. I am fairly concerned about how hard some of my classes may be this semester, so hopefully they aren't too hard. I will keep you updated.
