Overdue update May 2010

It has been a crazy long time since I posted. Here's just a snippet of what we've been up to.

April 30-May 2, 2010:
We traveled to Asheville, NC for our first wedding anniversary! We stayed at the Renaissance Inn in downtown Asheville and spent Saturday, May 1, visiting the Biltmore House. It was a great experience and we had a wonderful time. Can't believe we've been married a year now- it just doesn't seem possible. We also took side trips to Waynesville, Cullowhee, Dillsboro, and a few small towns in the Asheville area. We love the NC mountains and go back as often as we can. Here's a picture from our weekend:



May 3-May 8:
I took exams for the Spring 2010 semester, undeniably the most difficult semester of both my undergraduate and my graduate college experiences. While my classes weren't difficult, I took too many of them, was almost NEVER home, and had tons of work to complete. My grades were wonderful though, and all my hard work paid off. I finish completely in September. I'm now enjoying a two and a half week break before beginning Summer Session I.

May 9-today:
On that Friday evening, we went out to eat with some wonderful friends of ours and their daughter. Since my horrible semester started in January, we've really been neglecting our friendships. Catching up was wonderful. On Saturday we spent the evening at a community dinner and got to hear some great music, played by some friends of ours. That Sunday, we went to church for Mother's Day with my mom and then went out to lunch with her, Michael's grandmother, his aunt and his mother. His cousins and brother were there as well. After spending time with them, we went to visit his other grandmother. We had a great time with each of them and were grateful for the time spent together as a family.

That's all for now! Stay tuned for more updates.
