Less than 2 weeks...

So in two weeks time I will have the pleasure of taking that wonderful test called the bar. Must say it is pretty bitter-sweet to me. First, I can think of nothing more than being done with this test that has consumed my entire summer, but then on the other side I am officially done with school and have to join the working world. I am excited to join the working world, but with the job market currently, I am just afraid of not being able to find anything. But that worry is for another day. Who knows what might happen.

So, for the next two weeks if you could all send some smart prayers and thoughts my way I would really appreciate it. The test starts July 27th at 8:00am, and I will be done July 29th at 4:00. Yes, the test really does last 3 days...

Until then!

Busy busy busy

I would like to think that every once and a while life would slow down a little bit, but I have come to the conclusion that whenever you wish or think it will, it only speeds up some more. Our past 6 months or so have been crazy, buying our first house, me finishing law school, and Tyler & Christine getting married, just to name a few events. So all along I thought by the time we made it to July the pace of life would get back to normal. But what was I thinking?!? I have the bar in less than 20 days and Nolen started a new job with Chevron a week ago. So for this "short" week it has been, it feels like it has lasted so much longer.

With the pace that never slows down, though, it makes me so thankful for all the people in our lives that keep us so busy. We have an amazing set of friends that keep us going non-stop, Nolen has a wonderful job and I hopefully will be able to say that soon as well. I just planned a trip up to Denver for 10 days next month to see my parents and brother, cannot wait, and I'm sure we will be heading out to the ranch come the first part of August to see all the progress on the house and Caleb before he heads to Lubbock to start at Tech!

Life is crazy, but I have to stop looking at that in the negative. It is crazy because we are blessed.

Until next time!

Blogging World

So I am going to attempt to join the blogging world to keep you up to date with our crazy lives. I love reading other people's blogs, seeing pictures, etc., so I am going to attempt to do the same. I have a feeling I will start off pretty slow since I don't understand half of the options on here, but I will get better. So bear with me, if you have any tips please pass them this way!
